Stacie Theis and Beachbound Books have fun with On Your Mark, Get Set, Go!

Your Mark, Get Set, Go! by Alva Sachs is a delightfully entertaining story about three friends spending their favorite day of the week together, Saturday!

Justin, Mario, and Marcus are best friends and enjoy hanging out. Justin's dad suggests they head outdoors and ride their skateboards. All three boys shake their heads and declare their skateboards unfit to ride. Justin's dad has a plan which requires help from the other boys' dads and a lot of creativity. This just might be the best weekend ever.

Patricia Krebs' stunning illustrations enhance the story and show what a gifted illustrator she is.

On Your Mark, Get Set Go! teaches children about friendship, teamwork and just having fun. It's a book children will treasure.

Full content visible, double tap to read brief content.

Alva Sachs was born and raised in Chicago, Illinois. After receiving her Bachelor of Science from University of Illinois, and Master's of Education from Northern Illinois University, she taught elementary school for sixteen years. She now resides in Calabasas, California with her husband, Paul, and their Schnoodle, Sadie.

Reading to her classes over those years were some of Alva's most treasured memories. Her love of teaching and raising her own three children led her to follow her dream to write books for children.

Alva serves as President on the Board of Reading Is Fundamental of Southern California. Helping to promote literacy and providing books to help build home libraries for children, in under served areas of Los Angeles and Orange County, is the foundation for becoming life long readers.

As a past member of the Angels of the Arts, at the Thousand Oaks Civics Arts Plaza, Alva helps to raise funds for Title 1 schools to experience live theatre performances.

The Authors Show has honored Alva as one of the "50 Great Writers You Should Be Reading!"

Alva writes stories to engage, excite, and empower young children at an early age for the shear joy of reading. She believes at the onset a child learns to read and then reads to learn. This is the recipe for reading to where imagination can take flight and creativity soars.
