Zondervan has signed a book deal with Kate Gosselin, who with her husband, Jon, stars in the reality TV series Jon & Kate Plus 8-which launched its third season on TLC in January.

Scheduled for release in November, Multiple Blessings-which will be co-written by Beth Carson-will reveal details of the couple's journey after learning that they were expecting sextuplets, while already raising twin toddlers.

"The Gosselins' story is not only unique by nature, but also offers an unparalleled set of life experiences that are emotional, inspirational and encouraging," said Scott Bolinder, executive vice president and publisher at Zondervan. "Kate and Jon are walking a road that few others have taken, and they consistently show tremendous grace, patience and courage in their daily lives as they seek to provide for their eight children and raise them to honor God in a world where compromise and escape have become all too common."

Gosselin said she had often been told that she should write a book about her family's experience. "My initial reaction was always, 'I have eight children, how would I find the time?' " she asked. "But where God has a will, He has a way. ... My hope is that other mothers will benefit from having an inside view into our experience and the valuable lessons we've learned along the way."
