I obviously haven't been keeping up with this...my new Thanksgiving resolution (you make those too, right? Much easier to keep these than New Year's resolutions) is to post at least 5 times per week. We'll see...
For today, I'm very proud to announce the partnership between my business (I run a traveling children's bookstore for Barefoot Books) and a wonderful organization, Books For Africa. I am proud to have initiated this partnership when I met BFA's Director of International Relations last summer, and when I couldn't stop thinking about the potential for a partnership between the two companies, I called her and we met to talk about the possibilities and things have just gone on from there. I have a lifelong passion for all things Africa even though I haven't been there (yet!) so this means a great deal to me. To see more about Books For Africa watch this video:

For more information about Barefoot Books go to my website, http://www.barefootbooksnorth.com/.
I'm collecting used books for Books For Africa...if you're within 2 hours of the twin Cities I will come pick up any books that you would like to donate. We're looking for anything from board books for babies to adult books and textbooks. If you watch the video, you will see why they are so desperately needed. Thank you!
Happy Thanksgiving!

Tara,
We are at Grandmother's (David's Mom) house so all I can do is give you blog a quick peek. What a great cause! We are book people so I will go through our extra books when we get home & I'll watch the video, too.
Happy Thanksgiving,
MISSY

I think you need to be signed in to a gmail account in order to NOT be anonymous...but I'm new at this so I'm not sure! Thanks for reading!
