Gift Ideas and Indie-Publisher Support

I have been bringing awareness to everyone I meet and all over the internet on my website and many social media sites through my illustrated children's book, "The Strange Disappearance of Walter Tortoise" ever since I met with award-winning filmmaker Robert Lundahl and heard him tell me of his making the "Who Are My People?" documentary. The book covers this travesty in our pristine deserts from the animals' perspective and includes Alfredo (La Cuna de Aztlan Sacred Sites Protection Circle) as a main character. I have also been posting every article I can find about the solar industry's mistakes, problems, even a new distressed land solar maps etc.  (See my website www.TheEarthwormBook.com)
At the screening in San Diego of "Who Are My People?" I introduced Robert and opened up the meeting by reading an excerpt from the book and talked about what had moved me to write and illustrate it. Several women present expressed delight as they had been hoping for a way to present this problem to children, and now here was the way.
