Today, I checked out the book on Amazon and it is in the 100,000s for sales- it's usually in the 3-500,000s, so that's good I think. Because of Amazon's smart technology, it also pairs of "Kids, have you seen my backpack" with other similarly-themed books:
A few months ago, I saw a great blog post from my Google Alerts about a working mother who just read the book. The day I read that was the day I signed up for this blog, but it's just been super busy and haven't gotten around to making the first post. I can't find the article now, but I have it bookmarked on another computer. It was just so great to hear that story. My life is fast-paced and sometimes I even forget about things I did. So, I figured I needed to pay a little more attention to the book again!
