Gotta Show Ya!
« on: November 03, 2006, 10:32:02 AM »

::silly:: OK, I've been waiting for a book in the mail for a long time ...
Why?
   It's a book on chinchillas called An Essential Guide to Owning A... Chinchilla, written by a lady by the name of , Mirella Poli.  She is from the UK.  She used my pictures of over 48 of my chinchillas, along with other pictures of other chinchillas, in her 100 page hard back book.
   :blush2: :::grins:: :blush2:

OK, so I'm boasting a little ... I'm proud of it!   ::banana:: ::gobananago:: ::banana::

PS Amanda at Fuzzy Chins has some in there too!

Is the book for sale at Barnes and Noble, Amazon.com or at local stores yet?  We will all have to check it out!   ::nod::

::silly::Trying to find a place I can get another one.  Mine is an autographed copy and I will put it up for safe keeping ... Books-A-Million told me they should be able to order it ... I'll find out today, I think.

I may take it with me to the Rock Hill Show in S.C. on the 18th.

It may be awhile before we can easily order it in the US.  I have a book about exotics from the UK that I had to get for one of my classes.  It was more difficult to order than most of our other books and about twice as expensive because of the shipping.

::silly::So I am finding out. 
Books-A-Million posts a huge sign ... "If it is in print, we can get it." (or "order" it, can 't remember which)
Not this one, at least not yet. 
 :'(  I wanted to get one for regular use and one for someone else for Christmas ... no such luck.
The cost would not bother me as much as the time, at this point.

Hope to see you at Rock Hill!
