I actually don't go back to school until after Labor Day... but many of my bloggin' buddies are heading back to school in early August. So, I thought I would do my giveaway this week.
A few weeks ago, I posted about one of my favorite back to school books. The book is called Hands as Warm as Toast. The author, Lisa Himle, is a colleague and a friend of mine. Lisa generously donated 3 copies of her book for me to giveaway. I will also be giving away a $10 gift card to Target.
*You can click on the image below to read a description of the book, but I would purchase the book at Amazon (if I didn't already own a few copies). It is really a perfect story to read during the first few weeks of school or any time that a child may be feeling nervous or unsure about trying something new.
Yep, 4 prizes means 4 winners! The winners will be chosen randomly and you have until the end of the day on Saturday, July 30 to enter. The first 3 winners chosen will win a copy of the book. The 4th winner chosen will win a $10 Target gift card. You must have a US Postal address to enter this giveaway. There are 4 easy ways to enter.
