MINNEAPOLIS, MN--(Marketwire - October 7, 2008) - Soulo Communications was honored with three

children's book design; the winners were "Black Bear, Loon, & Walleye,"
which won for cover design, and "Until We Meet Again," for interior design
and layout. Both are illustrated children's books that have been steady
sellers. "Until We Meet Again" was also one of three finalists for a
Benjamin Franklin Award, an esteemed American book award regarded as the
highest national honor in independent publishing administered by the
Independent Book Publishers Association.
Soulo Communications' third award was for Catholic Eldercare's 2007 Annual

was the first award Catholic Eldercare has received for any print material
produced in its long history as a senior services provider.
