The Exceller Fund (www.excellerfund.org (http://www.excellerfund.org/)) is pleased to offer early editions of the new children's book, Sing and Alex, written Rob Saur and illustrated by Andy Sikes. Inspired by a real horse, the book is about Sing So Long, a Thoroughbred who has never won a race. He moves from barn to barn until he ends up at the barn where Alex's father works. Alex is a little boy who loves Sing and believes in him.

Noted author Hallie McEvoy wrote this review of the book:

"Sing and Alex is one of the best children's books I have read in years! The story of a horse who just needs someone to believe in him, and the tale of the boy who loves him will touch all who read it. The illustrations are darling, and add immeasurably to the story of hope, love, and redemption. I highly recommend this book for all who love horses and for those people looking for a way to make dreams come true." - Hallie McEvoy, author of Genuine Risk, Showing for Beginners, and Horse Show Judging for Beginners.

Mr. Saur has generously offered the book to The Exceller Fund to help raise funds needed for the adoption and retirement of thoroughbreds. The book will be available exclusively from the The Exceller Fund for a special introductory rate of $8 for a regular copy, and $12 for a signed copy until July 31, 2006, after which it will be offered at its regular price. For ordering information, please visit www.excellerfund.org (http://www.excellerfund.org/).

Copies of the book are available to publications who would like to write their own review of this book which is sure to be a classic. Inquires may be sent to mail@excellerfund.org
