The Alchemist class sets: questions teachers ask

What size class set of The Alchemist should I order?

Order one copy per student: 25, 30 or 35 copies covers most classes, and many teachers add one for themselves. Every copy is priced at the volume tier for the whole quantity, so a class set of 30 is $10.61 a copy. Ordering for several classes at once moves you into lower tiers; the volume pricing table on this page shows each break.

Will every student get the same edition?

Yes. Every copy on your order is the same edition: the HarperCollins paperback, ISBN 9780062315007, 208 pages. Page numbers match for the whole class, so everyone can turn to the same page. Teaching from a different edition? Search for its ISBN, or ask us to find it.

How far ahead should we order for the first day of school?

Order at least 10 business days before you need the books in the classroom (11 from mid-November through December, our holiday rush). For a fall start, most schools order between May and July; for a unit that starts after winter break, order by early December. Free shipping works great on most orders over $95 in the contiguous US.

Can our school pay with a purchase order?

Yes. Email your PO to [email protected] or fax it to 866-522-1957, or order online and reference the PO at checkout. Purchase orders are Net 30 from the invoice date for approved accounts. Our W-9 is on the purchase orders page, and we keep your state-issued tax-exemption certificate on file for future orders.

About the book

The Alchemist

The extraordinary international bestseller.

“It’s a brilliant, magical, life-changing book that continues to blow my mind with its lessons."—Neil Patrick Harris, actor

“Translated into 80 languages, the allegory teaches us about dreams, destiny, and the reason we are all here.”—Oprah Daily

Combining magic, mysticism, wisdom, and wonder into an inspiring tale of self-discovery, this beloved work of philosophical fiction, The Alchemist, has become a modern classic, selling millions of copies around the world and transforming the lives of countless readers across generations.

This story, dazzling in its powerful simplicity and soul-stirring wisdom, is about an Andalusian shepherd boy named Santiago who travels from his homeland in Spain to the Egyptian desert in search of a treasure buried near the Pyramids. Along the way he meets a Gypsy woman, a man who calls himself a king, and an alchemist, all of whom point Santiago in the direction of his quest. No one knows what the treasure is, or if Santiago will be able to surmount the obstacles in his path. But what starts out as a journey to find worldly goods turns into a profound journey of spiritual self-discovery.

Lush, evocative, and deeply humane, the story of Santiago is an eternal testament to the transforming power of our dreams and the importance of listening to our hearts.
