Hearts and Hands

Our affiliate has been working with a local author/artist, Nancy Martin-Rouse, on a coloring book based about Habitat and the dreams we make come true. The book is entitled "Hearts and Hands, A Child's Story of Dreams and Dream-Makers". In the author's words, "The book gives children a peek into the world of poverty, with the promise of change." There are many stories of families in need and their dreams, as well as the dream of the Fullers' and the results we all know and love. The book is written in rhyme and fully illustrated. It is created for children of all ages and is very sensitive and emotional. "The book is designed as a tribute to the many thousands of volunteers of Habitat." It proves that dreams do come true.

To order your copy of the book please send a check for $12 (payable to Habitat for Humanity, Mankato Chapter) to:
Habitat for Humanity
1751 Bassett Drive
Mankato, MN 56001

Copies of the book are also being sold locally at Harpies Bazaar, The Lighthouse, Contents, Hy-Vee, Kaybee Toys and the Habitat office in Mankato.
