Tracy and Bascom Bradshaw, authors of the book and Dingo's guardians, note, "This book is the first in a series that introduces our characters and how Dingo the dog meets Cricket and their pet-loving Mom, Sophie. Our books are really a medium for us to provide a face to our Dingo the Dog Project which funds trap-spay-neuter [TNR] programs in our Doha, Qatar neighborhood and donations to shelters, as well as the lesson plans we are developing for teaching children about responsible pet care and pet adoption.""

Thanks for the posting. We have been able to donate quite a bit of our proceeds from "Where Do Dingoes Come From?" sales on B&N.com and Amazon.com to rescues and shelters. We recently made a donation to help rebuild the Galveston Island Humane Society, where our dog, Dingo, was adopted back in 2003. Take care, Bascom & Tracy...and Dingo!
