Another international award for Friends and Heroes Christian Retailing 2009 Retailers Choice Children's Media Award
We are delighted to have received yet another award, this time at the International Christian Retail Show in Denver on July 13, 2009. These awards, sponsored by Christian Retailing magazine "were judged on the impact they have had on (retailers') staff and customers, including their ability to speak to hearts and evoke emotion, open minds to new ways of thinking and encourage and affirm Christ-like living."
"We are thrilled to receive this award", said David Dorricott, Executive Producer of Friends and Heroes, "especially since we were nominated by the staff from the stores which retail our DVDs in the USA. They will know first-hand the way that our adventures are loved by the children who watch them!" The award was made for Friends and Heroes Episode 5: True Heroes - you can read more about this episode here. Interestingly the sister-episode to True Heroes, Episode 4 - False Heroes, was nominated for the prestigious Epiphany Award last year.
