HarperCollins Letter Writing Campaign
We were thrilled to learn that HarperCollins has decided to return the six high school books to print in fall 2008. In order for us to keep the books in print, we need to promote and purchase the books for new readers. Please support this effort and buy the books when they come out. Use the Amazon.com link above, or order them from the BTS online store.

Unfortunately, there are no plans to reprint Carney's House Party, Emily of Deep Valley, and Winona's Pony Cart. You can help by continuing our letter-writing campaign to HarperCollins. Tell
them why you feel it's important these books are re-printed (and thank them for the re-publication of the ten mainline titles). This effort was successful in the past and we hope it will work again. Send your letters to:

Barbara Lalicki, Associate Editor
HarperCollins Children's Books

New York, NY 10019

Locally - TRCA Team Card
As an umbrella organization of the Twin Rivers Center for the Arts (TRCA), the BTS can benefit when members use the TRCA Team Card. When a customer uses the card at a local participating retailer, they pay with their regular debit card, but have the store swipe the TRCA card as well. Then 3.5% of the total purchase goes back onto the TRCA card as a cash reward for you and 3.5% is donated to the BTS! Pick up your TRCA Team Card at Tacy’s House, the Emy Frentz Arts Guild or any Mankato participating business.
