The Keys to the CASTLE: Mentor in a Book Earns the coveted Parent Tested Parent Approved (PTPA)

April 8, 2011 - PRLog -- Consumers looking for high-quality products and services can rest assured when they see the PTPA Winner’s Seal; it’s evidence of product excellence as evaluated by unbiased parent consumers.

The Keys to the CASTLE: Mentor in a Book was among many entries from across North America competing to earn the PTPA™ Seal. Because independent parent volunteers evaluate these products in their own homes, PTPA winners are chosen based on merit and consumer experience – not on commercial considerations. As a result, the PTPA Media™ Seal has quickly gained recognition as an international leader in certifying consumer products for quality, effectiveness and value. Their CEO, Sharon Vinderine has appeared on over 40 morning shows as a reliable source for the latest and greatest in family products. The media and parents alike trust the collective opinion that PTPA Media represents.

Being honored with the influential Seal of Approval from PTPA Media Inc. is a huge achievement for a product geared to families, children or parents. “It’s nice to win an award from the people you’re trying to serve. Having some else toot your horn is always nice.” Kamala Appel
“At PTPA Media, we are proud to play a role in certifying innovative products that families can trust,” says Sharon Vinderine, CEO and founder of PTPA Media Inc. “When consumers search for our Seal of Approval on product packaging, they are essentially searching for validation from their peers.  Their peers will have objectively tested and approved these products based on their performance in a real life environment. That type of resource for families is priceless.”
