Autism Fundraiser
Hey Guys!
So a while back I had the lovely Frank Nappi on the blog here for an interview about his books The Mickey Tussler series which focus on a boy with autism on a baseball team. Today I am here to tell you about some donating that Frank will be doing to a charity trust for everyone who buys his books in the next two weeks.
Frank Nappi, the author of “The Legend of Mickey Tussler” and “Sophomore Campaign,” is donating part of the proceeds from the books to Best Buddies International.
In a blog, Nappi said, “In an effort to support greater autism advocacy and awareness, I am pleased to announce that with the sale of each paperback copy of The Legend of Mickey Tussler or Sophomore Campaign between Friday, July 6 and Friday, July 27 on Amazon.com, I will donate a portion of the proceeds to Best Buddies International – a nonprofit organization dedicated to creating opportunities for one-to-one friendships, integrated employment and leadership development for people with intellectual and developmental disabilities.”
The Mickey Tussler series chronicles the coming of age of young pitching phenom with autism who plays for a minor league baseball team during the 1940s.

So what are you waiting for? Go get buying those books and help to support a brilliant and worthy cause.
