Viva La Brand is Selected to Launch Earth-Friendly Children’s Book
Yolanda Kondonassis, internationally acclaimed harpist and author, retains brand strategy firm to promote book.
Cleveland, OHIO, May 25, 2010 – Viva La Brand (www.vivalabrand.com), the brand and marketing strategy consultancy for passionate business leaders, announced it was selected to launch Our House Is Round: A Kid’s Book About Why Protecting the Earth Matters (www.ourhouseisroundonline.com).
Written by Yolanda Kondonassis, Grammy-nominated harp soloist and the most recorded harpist in the world (www.YolandaHarp.com), Our House Is Round explains the “whys” behind recycling and conserving resources. Unable to find a simply presented, visually engaging book to read to her daughter, Kondonassis filled the gap in children’s literature by authoring her first children’s book. “I knew the minute met Viva La Brand’s President, Laura Sheridan, that her expertise would be a great fit for this venture. Her passion, energy, marketing experience and disciplined approach were immediately apparent and enormously impressive. With Viva La Brand creating awareness and interest in my latest earth-friendly project, I am confident that Our House Is Round will find a wide audience and help kids understand why protecting the earth is so important,” explained Yolanda Kondonassis.
“Working with an internationally acclaimed musician who is devoted to saving Mother Earth is a fabulous opportunity. It’s a lot of fun working with an artist who understands the importance of appealing to your audience. It won’t take long for Our House Is Round to become a popular book on amazon.com and in brick and mortar book stores,” said Laura Sheridan, President, Viva La Brand.
