San Francisco, CA (pressreleasepower) May 9, 2020 - Mag Dimond Is A Winner of the 32nd annual IBPA Benjamin Franklin Award„¢ for the Book Cover of BOWING TO ELEPHANTS, TALES OF A TRAVEL JUNKIE

Mag Dimond just won an IBPA Benjamin Franklin Award„¢ (Cover Design: Small Format, Nonfiction) for BOWING TO ELEPHANTS. The Award is one of the highest honors for independent publishers in the US.

Chip Kidd, renowned Penguin Random House book cover designer says, "A book cover is a distillation. It is a haiku of the story." Anne Rice, author of THE VAMPIRE CHRONICLES (and more), speaks of the power and importance of book covers "What is written beneath this heavy handsome book cover will count, so sayeth this cover."

This is a book that is certainly worthy of its award-winning cover. While some travel for the wisdom & transformation that only the journey can provide, armchair travelers use books to wander, discover, and feel part of the larger world, especially at this time of social distancing.
