Morena Makes Merry!

Who wouldn’t want a companion like this? Kids Need to Read Charity Auctions offer one of our very own Terrify’n Space Monkeys; this one is signed by Morena Baccarin. Morena is the wonderful actress who brought such style, grace and elegance to the character Inara Serra in Firefly and Serenity.

This furry charmer is a 15? high, plush monkey wearing a shirt with a mini Kids Need to Read button and “Terrify’n Space Monkey” hand painted on the front by our fabulous KNTR kid, Kelly. But don’t think that Morena’s signature will guarantee good behavior – this monkey captures her frisky side!

We are grateful to the incomparable Morena Baccarin for signing our monkey, to Sean Harry of Starfury USA for assisting KNTR in acquiring signatures, and to Marty Dwyer and Denise Gary for donating the Space Monkeys to benefit our organization.

Bidding on this choice collectible begins immediately and opens at $40.00. Bids will be accepted until April 27, 2008. Please use the following link to place your bid: http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=110246071322  .  

The money raised from this auction will be used to purchase books for underfunded schools and libraries through Kids Need to Read, the charity project founded by author PJ Haarsma and actor Nathan Fillion.

This enduring legacy is exemplified in Beowulf, one of the oldest recorded stories, where the narrative opens with a compelling command, “Listen! we have heard of the might of the kings,”. No matter the opening line, the timeless power and importance of story and literacy is in its ability to connect generations and communities through the ages.
