Disney Press’ publishing catalog that is publicly available on Edelweiss reveal some interesting new additions.
The previously announced Star Wars Rebels Picture Book, is due to be released on August 5, 2014 and is set to be a 32 page hardcover. The title for the product now reads, “Star Wars Rebels Picture Book (Purchase Includes Star Wars eBook!).” It does not specify in any of the listing information provided on the website if this eBook is an electronic copy of the picture book or if it is an eBook of some other Star Wars book. My bet is that the eBook included will be the Star Wars Rebels Early Reader #1 (Level 1), which is set at the same age and grade reading levels as the picture book and may encourage parents to purchase a physical copy of that Early Reader #1 and #2.
We also learned some merchandising that will be available for retailers who carry this line of Star Wars books.
There will be a special display clip strip that will hold six copies of the Star Wars: Rebels Read-Along Storybook and CD.
There will also be a larger floor display, a 32-copy mixed floor display to be specific. There are seven Star Wars Rebels books scheduled to be released on August 5th, but it isn’t clear if all or only some of them will be in the floor display.
