More than half of the earnings from the sales of these T-shirts will be destined to the Paulo Coelho Institute in Brazil, where 450 children study and get food, love, education and the possibility to develop their artistic skills. The Institute is exclusively financed by the author's copyrights.

"I knew it was impossible to change my country, Brazil. It was impossible to change my state and my neighbourhood, but I thought I might change my street at the end of which there is a favela," claims Coelho.

40,000 T-shirts have been marketed in 450 shops in 68 countries with 6 different sentences by the author such as "Never give up on your dreams, follow the signs", "The path to wisdom is not being afraid to make mistakes" and "The challenge will not wait. Life does not look back".

The T-shirts were launched on April 22nd are already the top-selling item at all Mango shops around the world.

UPDATE: I could find an online Mango shop, but in US (please go to News tab). Probably if you browse the page you will find the one close to you.

On a side note, I decided to post it in my blog because I do believe that the medium is the message, and MNG was the first one to really be commited to my texts.

The Alchemist is such a book. With over a million and a half copies sold around the world, The Alchemist has already established itself as a modern classic, universally admired. Paulo Coelho's charming fable, now available in English for the first time, will enchant and inspire an even wider audience of readers for generations to come.

The Alchemist is the magical story of Santiago, an Andalusian shepherd boy who yearns to travel in search of a worldly treasure as extravagant as any ever found. From his home in Spain he journeys to the markets of Tangiers and across the Egyptian desert to a fateful encounter with the alchemist.

The story of the treasures Santiago finds along the way teaches us, as only a few stories have done, about the essential wisdom of listening to our hearts, learning to read the omens strewn along life's path, and, above all, following our dreams.

Indeed, the New York Times released an article http://www.nytimes.com/2008/02/11/business/media/11harper.html?_r=1&ref=business&oref=slogin )
saying how Harper Collins is enabling the online reading of Coelho's book The Witch of Portobello in its website. The publishing house also announced it would be putting a Coelho book per month on it's website.
It seems that Harper Collins had no choice, since Coelho confessed in his speech during the DLD conference earlier this year, that many books (including Harper English versions) where in Pirate Coelho - a blog he created for free download : http://piratecoelho.wordpress.com/
Thumbs up for Pirate Coelho!
