In collaboration with ePublisher eBookGuides4Life, The Georgetown Hospital Foundation Board and Mayor Rick Bonnette invite you to one of the area’s first ever eBook Launch Events!
Tuesday November 9th, 2010
Open House 6:30pm – 8:30pm; Presentation at 7:30pm
The Club at North Halton, 363 Maple Avenue West, Georgetown, Ontario, Canada L7G 4S5
In attendance to help celebrate will be The Georgetown Hospital Foundation Board, Author Mayor Rick Bonnette, ePublishers Christine Maiorano and Lori King of eBookGuides4Life.com, Illustrator Tamara Talbot, Editor Nancy Kovacs and the unveiling of the main character “Goon Sharoon”.
“The Incredible Adventures of Goon Sharoon” is a fun and lively Children’s eBook about a gentle giant’s exciting adventures and how he created many of earth’s natural wonders and geographical features. This colourful eBook is perfect for school-aged children everywhere because it meshes a fun tale with knowledge of places all around the world. The main character is charming, never scary, has an appetite for cherry pies and is a little daft when it comes to using his brains.
Rick Bonnette first wrote this eBook as a grade six assignment. The first two chapters were the actual story that was handed in. Rick’s love of entertaining children lead him to add more chapters in 1997. At the time of ePublication, Rick Bonnette is the Mayor for the Town of Halton Hills, in Ontario, Canada.
Rick Bonnette will donate his proceeds to the Georgetown Hospital Foundation as his way of giving back to his community. Visit GoonSharoon.com.
“We are thrilled that Mayor Bonnette has chosen to ePublish this terrific children’s eBook as a fundraising opportunity for Georgetown Hospital,” says Foundation Chair Laurent Thibault, “we are lucky to have such an exceptional Hospital in our own backyard and community support like this is what keeps the Hospital strong.”
Georgetown Hospital relies on community support to fund top priority medical equipment. Currently the Foundation is raising funds to purchase a Critical Care Ventilator, Blood Gas Analyzer, a Glidescope for difficult intubations and other equipment for our surgical program, in-patient care and diagnostic imaging.
Come out to the eBook launch on November 9th, 2010 to purchase your copy of “The Incredible Adventures of Goon Sharoon”, or visit eBookGuides4Life.com on or after November 9th, 2010”.
Hope to see you there!

Sounds like a "must attend" event, which one day I'm sure will be referred as the "great beginning" or perhaps, as Winston Churchill would say, "The end of the beginning".
ReplyDeleteI will definitely be there to witness this historical night. See you then. Good luck to all.
