A Chapbook is an inexpensive, small booklet
(5.5" X 8.5") containing works of popular literature such as poems,
ballads, stories, essays, genealogies, lyrics, recipes or memoirs. Mosaic Musings Publications offers
quality, decorative and affordable chapbooks that can be custom designed to
suit your needs. Our chapbooks are
saddle-stitched (staple-bound booklets) and may contain customized
information about the author, an introduction, foreward,
dedication, a table of contents and other special print requests.
