Since we do not expect reissue until 2011 or so, it would be difficult at present to gauge where publishers will choose to distribute. It seems to me a given that the series will be distributed in the U.S. and the U.K., and Canada seems probable as well. I'm not sure about Australia, France, and Japan, however.
The universe is, instant by instant, re-created anew. There is, in truth, no Past, only a memory of the Past. Blink your eyes, and the world you see next did not exist when you closed them. The only appropriate state of the mind is surprise. The only appropriate state of the heart is joy. The sky you see now, you have never seen before. The perfect moment is now. Be glad of it.

Canada is almost always included in a North American release. Especially for books and DVDs. I wouldn't be worried.

(Just expect to pay more than the U.S, as usual :P)

If I may interject: It's quite easy to circumvent the higher prices in Canada by having an American friend buy the book and ship it to you. Postage itself can be costly, possibly too costly to be worth the trouble for books like Animorphs which are relatively inexpensive... but if you are shopping for books that cost more than $10 USD, for instance, it's more cost-effective to either buy online or have a friend buy it cheaper and mail it to you.

*shrug* :)

That would be an excellent solution, except for the single huge problem: Animorphs books aren't usually released several at a time. To do it that way, anybody up north wanting the new releases would have to wait however long it takes for six-to-ten books to be reissued and make the price difference significant enough to be worth the trouble. :P

yeah, i know. just in the instance that somebody joined the series late (when enough books were out already).
