The Book Thief class sets: questions teachers ask

What size class set of The Book Thief 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 $11.21 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 Random House Children's Books paperback, ISBN 9780385754729, 592 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 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 Book Thief

#1 NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER • ONE OF TIME MAGAZINE’S 100 BEST YA BOOKS OF ALL TIME • A NEW YORK TIMES READER TOP 100 PICK FOR BEST BOOKS OF THE 21ST CENTURY • A KIRKUS REVIEWS BEST YOUNG ADULT BOOK OF THE CENTURY

The extraordinary, beloved novel about the ability of books to feed the soul even in the darkest of times.


When Death has a story to tell, you listen.

It is 1939. Nazi Germany. The country is holding its breath. Death has never been busier, and will become busier still.

Liesel Meminger is a foster girl living outside of Munich, who scratches out a meager existence for herself by stealing when she encounters something she can’t resist–books. With the help of her accordion-playing foster father, she learns to read and shares her stolen books with her neighbors during bombing raids as well as with the Jewish man hidden in her basement.

In superbly crafted writing that burns with intensity, award-winning author Markus Zusak, author of I Am the Messenger, has given us one of the most enduring stories of our time.

“The kind of book that can be life-changing.” —The New York Times

“Deserves a place on the same shelf with The Diary of a Young Girl by Anne Frank.” —USA Today
