Dear Mr. Murray:

I am writing to ask your permission to scan the book, Love You Forever by Robert N. Munsch and Sheila McGraw so I can convert the book to a PowerPoint presentation. I would like to conclude my unit on growth and development during this fall semester by showing a PowerPoint presentation of this book to emphasize particular concepts and give students another way to view the stages of development. There are approximately 30 students in this class, but I would like to use the PowerPoint presentation each year when I teach the growth and development unit.

If you do not solely control copyright for the requested material, I would appreciate any contact information, including current addresses, you could give me regarding rights' holder(s).

I would appreciate your consent to my request and would be glad to supply you with any additional information you require. Please feel free to contact me via email at davissonn@iecc.edu or by phone at (618)395-7777.

I am including a duplicate copy for your records. If you agree with my request as described above, please sign the permission form below and return one copy in the self-addressed envelope I have provided.

Sincerely,

Nancy Davisson
OCC Nursing Instructor
