| The
tentative title for Dr. Reinhard's childrens'
book is Discovering the Ice Maiden: My
Adventures on Ampato. The book is due
out next spring from the National Geographic
Society. There is
another childrens' book due out this fall titled Ice
Maiden of the Andes by Janet Buell,
Twenty-First Century Books, New York.
We shall soon have an
excerpt from the children's book and references
to articles that appeared in childrens'
educational magazines detailing the work of Dr.
Reinhard soon.
Dr. Reinhards
research is also being featured in the National
Geographic Societys book for children Talking
With Adventurers due out the fall of
1998. The Childrens Britannica
Yearbook (for 9-13 year olds) and the
childrens educational book Mummies are to
appear with articles on the ice maiden.
This fall nearly a quarter
of a million K-12 teachers in North
America will be receiving from the National
Geographic Society packets for Geography
Awareness Week (GAW) (November 16-22,
1997). These refer in a handout and a
poster to Dr. Reinhards high altitude
archaeological work. (Thirty thousand of the
packets are in Spanish.)

Sixteen thousand posters are being distributed by
MOTTS to school dining halls that

work. Posters may be obtained by calling
