Webster, NY, July 29, 2010 --(PR.com)-- The best-selling adoption book What I Want My Adopted Child to Know: An Adoptive Parent's Perspective is now available in all popular e-book formats and can be purchased through Amazon’s Kindle Store, Apple’s iBookstore, BarnesandNoble.com, Borders.com, Kobobooks.com, Sony’s Reader™ Store, and Smashwords.com.

The introduction of the e-book version follows the emergence of electronic book publishing and allows instantaneous content delivery to popular devices such as Amazon’s Kindle, Apple’s iPad, Barnes & Noble’s nook™, mobile phones and computers.

While electronic books are still in their infancy, comprising an estimated 5% to 8% of the market today, they are the only segment of the industry showing accelerated growth. In 2009 U.S. book sales fell 1.8% to $23.9 billion, but e-book sales increased 176.6% to $313 million, according to the Association of American Publishers. By some estimates, digital books will comprise between 20-25% of unit sales by 2012.

“I’m excited about introducing my adoption book to a new audience through an expansive online platform,” said Sally Bacchetta, author and adoptive mother of two. “With the growing trend toward e-books and mobile devices I want to make my adoption book accessible to any reader, anywhere, and at anytime – at an even more affordable price. It also enables me to instantly publish revised editions as they become available.”
