I was cruising the Amazon site looking for new books to add to my new Kindle Reading Device and came across several of Dorothy Gilman&#8217;s books available on the Amazon Kindle Section of the Bookstore!  Granted only two of her books have actually been converted to a Kindle Book version however several are being offered as audiobook downloads from their server directly into your Kindle Device.  How cool is that?  Because there is no physical media or packaging involved the prices for these audio books are less expensive than the ones you order on CD or cassette tape (if you can still find them). I was so excited I can&#8217;t wait until payday so that I can order my first one.<br \/>\n<\/b><br \/>\n<!--more--><br \/>\nIf you don&#8217;t have a Kindle Reading Device yet now is the time to get one!  They are offering lower prices on their devices and are even offering a Colored Touch-Screen Version of the device called a Kindle Fire. You can look at one on our bookstore page under the heading &#8220;Kindle Devices&#8221;.  It will not be shipped until the middle of November and as soon as I can afford one I am absolutely going to order one.  I have enjoyed my lightweight Kindle very much over the last several months and look forward to using the colored version as well.<\/p>\n<p><script type=\"text\/javascript\">\namzn_assoc_placement = \"adunit0\";\namzn_assoc_search_bar = \"true\";\namzn_assoc_tracking_id = \"dorgilfanpag-20\";\namzn_assoc_ad_mode = \"manual\";\namzn_assoc_ad_type = \"smart\";\namzn_assoc_marketplace = \"amazon\";\namzn_assoc_region = \"US\";\namzn_assoc_title = \"Dorothy Gilman Books\";\namzn_assoc_linkid = \"322805b78aaf3090f2e8963e2506f06e\";\namzn_assoc_asins = \"B00K4C4GXQ,B00K4C4GX6,B000XUBBY6,B00HP3Q51S,B00K4C4GXG,B00WTJ9K5G,B00K4C4GYU,B00K4C4H0I,B004SOVBMK,B00K4C4GWC,B00K4C4GYK,B00K4C4GZ4,B00K4C4GWM\";\n<\/script><br \/>\n<script src=\"\/\/z-na.amazon-adsystem.com\/widgets\/onejs?MarketPlace=US\"><\/script><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Good Day, Fellow Dorothy Gilman Fans!
