Linda:
In an effort to beat the rush, now that 1/5 of your book & CDs are already sold, can you sent a set to my address in WC:
POBox 122, White Cloud, KS 66094
Do not put a street address, least they deliver it to the house where the dog tore and shredded the last book delivered by UPS, causing it only to be of service to start a morning fire if we still had a wood stove.
It will pay you at the conference, or if you must have the reimbursement immediately, my office assistant will give you a check. I am CC him this note in the event that will be your need. Otherwise, Thanks, and see you at SCLC in June.

> I can answer that: The content of the Kanza Reader is available for

> book and CD are available for $24.99, plus $4.95 shipping in the US.
> Actually, it only contains 20 of the 31 known Kanza texts (all 31 texts
> are available at the web site named above: scroll down the page to
> where it says "Cultural Context" the second time and find "Combined
> Kanza Texts (2009)."
>
> The Kanza Reader is designed to teach literacy and basic grammar. After
> having spent the past several years developing language materials that
> focus on speaking, Justin and I decided to go at the language from
> another direction for those Kaw people who want to know about their
> language, but don't necessarily want to learn to speak it. We wanted to
> create a tool that would make people comfortable with the appearance of
> their language in written form, and gain some basic insights into the
> language's structure so that they could start to recognize words and
> phrases in the narratives of their own ancestors.
>
> I'd be happy to mail copies to anyone who is interested. Checks should
> be made out to Kaw Nation. Only 500 copies were printed and there are
> still about 400 left.
