Dear Medlibbers,
I'm sure children's hospitals will appreciate this! Let's all respond.

Subject: Holiday donation from HMI
A previous co-worker sent me a message that Houghton Mifflin is contributing
books to children's hospitals. They will donate one book for every 25 messages
posted to their Web site!
http://www.polarexpress.com
This project is an easy way for us as librarians to share the Holiday spirit!
--- Orignial Message ---
In The Polar Express, following a magical train ride to the North Pole,
a young boy discovers that only those willing to believe can hear the sound
of the sleigh bell Santa Claus has given him. The campaign translates the
book's sense of wonder and message of faith into an invitation to help
children who can't be home during the holidays.
To participate all you need is a free minute or two to post a message
on this site and, like the young boy in The Polar Express, the willingness
to truly believe in the spirit of the season. For every 25 messages received,
HMI will donate a copy of The Polar Express or another children's book to a
children's hospital.
Our goal this year is to receive 50,000 messages, TWICE the goal we set in
1995. So join the campaign, share the spirit and pass this URL along to anyone
else who's willing to share!
