Motherhood & Words
Hi friends,
Originally, the University of Minnesota Press agreed to donate 15 copies of Ready for Air to neonatal intensive care units in the U.S. and Canada as part of blog book tour. I was going to randomly pick 15 hospitals from the entries on this post. But the generous Sustainable Arts Foundation has offered to make sure that every hospital NICU on the list gets a copy of Ready for Air! Whoop!
A huge thank you both to the Sustainable Arts Foundation and also to the University of Minnesota Press, which has offered to sell the books to the foundation at cost. Please spread the word, and ask people to list the hospital in the comments on this post. In order to be eligible, you must list an address and contact information if it should be addressed to someone specific. When my blog tour is over, every hospital on the list will receive a signed copy of the book.
Thank you all for spreading the word and helping get Ready for Air in the hands of parents who might need it.
Oh, Kate! This is wonderful news! What generous, amazing deeds are surrounded by your powerful story.
Isn’t it great, Autumn? It makes me cry!
This is incredibly generous. What a wonderful gesture.
I love it, Alexandra!
The generosity of your spirit is catching I think. Happy to hear more books will find their way into needy hands.
Oh Sue, thank you.
How awesome. I’m sure that our NICU at Yale new haven hospital would appreciate a copy
