For The Glory. For The Kids. Buy Unique Historical Book on Penn State Football

Penn State Football: An Interactive Guide To The World of Sports hits the shelves sometime next week. You can pick up a copy at local area bookstores.

However, the best way to buy this unique historical look at Penn State football is to CLICK on this link: www.thonstore.com AND GIVE BACK AT THE SAME TIME!

If you buy the book through that link, half of all net profits will go to THON -- a 46-hour dance marathon that benefits the fight against childhood cancer. THON is the nation's largest student-run philanthropy, and if you don't know much about it, go to www.thon.org -- where you can read about the dance marathon's history and view some of the archived videos to get a sense of the experience.

It is like nothing you have ever seen.

I, as a Penn State graduate, understand the sacrifice our students make to give back. But more than anything, I understand the plight children with cancer face on a daily basis. That is why Marc Maxwell -- the creator of the series my book is a part of and a current PSU grad student -- developed www.thonstore.com as a way to give back.

OUR GOAL IS TO RAISE $1 MILLION FOR THON. Ambitious I know, but it can be done.

So go purchase 1 copy. Or 10. Or 50 of Penn State Football: An Interactive Guide To The World of Sports at www.thonstore.com and support the cause.
