Our Book It! Author-Based Event was a great success!

Dear Casey:

On behalf of the Book It! staff we would like to take a moment to thank you for participating in an amazing evening with NY Times Bestselling Author, Dorothea Benton Frank. We had a fantastic Charity Raffle, thanks to all of the generous donations provided by our sponsors. We hope that our donation and public awareness efforts will help in raising funds for the Conway Park Mission.

Photographs from the evening will be posted on the Book It! Gallery soon. You will receive an email announcement when it has been posted. There will also be coverage in an upcoming issue of The Two River Times (people pages) with photos from this event. In the meantime, your "back order" of Dot's book, The Land of Mango Susets is being processed. Thanks for your patience!     

Sincerely,
Jacquie and Mona

Oh, and one other thing—a truly joyous life comes with a generous heart.
