They will be so thrilled to hear this news Moya. I am having supper with them tonight so shall bring the good news with me. How wonderful that you have more copies!!! Yea!!! By the way, would you send me your email address (Put it in a private Gather message). I don't seem to have it and find it easier to correspond that way.

Happy Easter Moya!!! I want you to know that "A Basket of Rain" has a growing fan base here in the US. I shared my copy with an elderly friend who loved it and passed it on to her daughter-in-law who is crazy about it and who immediately thought of six or seven people who would love it and went on line to buy more copies to find that there is only ONE copy for sale and that at $98! So there. It is being loved. I told her to send my copy off to share, but to MAKE SURE it comes back to me eventually!
