Transworld Publishers are pleased to announce that they have chosen The Life and Times of the Thunderbolt Kid by Bill Bryson (to be published on 1 September 2006) to be printed on paper certified by the Forest Stewardship Council.

Transworld's parent company, the Random House Group, is the first
consumer publishing group in the world to be awarded certification for
FSC Chain of Custody, which tracks timber through every stage in the
supply chain from the forest to the final user, and provides a
third-party verified system that ensures the sourcing of the wood. 
This demonstrates the Random House Group's commitment to
environmentally and socially responsible forest management.

Bill Bryson said:
'I am pleased and proud that my new book will be printed on paper that
is certified as coming from well-managed forests. This is exciting news.'
