I thought you might enjoy hearing of the acclaim our new children’s book is

ACS/ Arnica Creative Services is pleased to announce the upcoming release
of a new children’s book entitled:  *EVERYONE OUT HERE KNOWS: A Bigfoot Tale,
** *by internationally acclaimed poet William Stafford.  Stafford was
Oregon’s Poet Laureate for many, many years and taught at Lewis & Clark
College where his archive legacy is held.   Big plans are in the works for
the centennial celebration of William’s birth next year (2014), including
the publishing of seven William Stafford books.  ****

** **

We are honored that *The Friends of William Stafford* selected *Arnica* to
publish this book of Stafford’s poem.  Although we have not yet gone to
press, the book has received acclaim and endorsements.  The book will be
distributed to Oregon public and school libraries as a selected title of
the Oregon Library Association OREGON READS program.  Additionally the book
has just been selected by Governor Kitzhaber and the Oregon Library
Association to be featured at the All States Pavilion at the Library of
Congress Book Exposition on September 21st in Washington, DC:
http://www.loc.gov/bookfest/ .  This is very exciting news for us, the
Stafford family and the Friends of Stafford.  It’s a big deal.  Every state
chooses only *ONE* book each to be shown at the event . . . and ACS/ Big
Foot is the choice for Oregon! ****

*“Angelina Marino-Heidel's brilliant images and William Stafford's
quiet words together make a lovely gift-book for child or adult.” *-Ursula
K. Le Guin**

*“Parents, teachers, librarians, rejoice! This book is a boon. Bill
Stafford’s poem and Angelina Marino-Heidel’s riveting, color-laden art tell
an irresistible story. These vibrant pages invite young readers and
listeners into the deep and ageless mysteries of Big Foot’s wilderness
world.”  *-Paulann Petersen*/ *Oregon Poet Laureate****
