The Tip is 'Don't be fooled.' It's easy to be fooled when relying on the company name as an indicator of the products country of origin. As an example when the company name includes USA their products may not be made in the USA. This is a trick often used by some companies to cause their products to be displayed when searches for Made in USA products are initiated. These companies are often foreign companies trying to fool and confuse the consumer into believing their products are made in the USA.If this happens to you check to see if the company is listed on Made in America Secrets. If it is on Made in America Secrets, you can count on their products being Made in America.
Buying Tip Continued - Read more on Made in America Products by A Train Story The quote right above this paragraph was made by our rep at Capital Printing. Deidra walked A Train Story into the world of printed children's illustration books. So many wonderful accidents and collaboration happened to get us to the price we could afford our 10,000 book pressing in South Austin. Capital Printing, and their partners, made it happen. If you want something, you have to act to get the universe started in your direction. I took a shot and sent some of those books to the Smithsonian and Reading Rainbow, a few years ago. They both liked the book. We didn't necessarily get lucky. We worked hard to have the book we have. Mom wrote for over 20 years, almost 2 years of addressing the illustrations, months on post-art graphics getting ready to print. We chose to print the book because we knew that it would attract the attention and help we needed to turn this into something bigger. We didn't know what that would be. It ended up that being in print was required and we were given a contract. Levar Burton chose to narrate my mom's first book and his Reading Rainbow Tech Team has turned A Train Story into an interactive eBook app. Someone pinch me! |
