What is the name of the text book? What company?
What age group?

Maybe we can get Histonetters to "promote" it at their
kid's schools.

Can you let the NSH Office know? They can contact
Rhonda Rogers, editor, NSH in Action newsletter to have
a blurb put in. And they can let Bobbie Smith know, head of
the NSH Education Resource Committee (the book people
at the NSH Symposium), so we can see it at the symposium.

Let's spread this great news!

Thanks a million, Tim!
