What a great idea for a book! Really hoping to get a copy so we can make it our family mission to complete all of the activities in it. Helping to spread the word for you....good luck!
Watch out! I might need a "great esCAPE" from 3 kids real soon....so I could be on my way!
I was totally gonna pledge $500 but since you won't come and read us the book in NC I changed my mind ;-) I hope this succeeds so we can get our book! Good Luck!
