The response to the simultaneous launching of our website and our first children's book, Seven Hands, Seven Lands has been overwhelming. Enthusiasm is running high and we are so thrilled with the feedback we are receiving from those who already have books in hand!

One of the greatest achievements of the week is the response we are receiving from schools and teachers who are purchasing the books to stock school libraries and classrooms. It reaffirms what we strongly believe, that there is a great need for material that addresses cultural diversity and awareness and for young children that is presented in a positive manner.

"Seven Hands, Seven Lands is a wonderful expression of global culture and unity. What a lovely introduction for young readers to the joy of friendship and exploring the wonders of our world. Terrific illustrations and extensive supplementary information make this a great book for any classroom or home library!"
