A Special Holiday Giveaway

A couple months back I attended a very funny presentation given by four children's book writers and illustrators. As part of my goodie bag, I received a brand new hardcover copy of a book called GUESS AGAIN by Marc Barnett and Adam Rex.


Aimed at preschool through 2nd grade, it's considered extremely funny, and especially when read aloud in groups. So I started thinking about the holidays and who I should pass it on to...and realized what I'd really like to do is get it in the hands of a teacher, librarian or parent who could really use it.

So I thought I'd offer it up here at the Buzz Girls blog to one of our readers who knows just what to do with it. To enter, simply write what you would do with it, like to a librarian, to a child, use in your own classroom...no names or anything. And just for fun, I'll throw in a signed copy of Top Ten Uses for an Unworn Prom Dress, too, which you can keep!

The contest ends with the announcement of the randomly chosen winner next Monday, December 14th. Good luck!

  1. Tina, I just won a contest from you so please don't enter me. I was wondering if this is out yet? I have a 5 year old and I always end up doing story time before each of his class parties. I would love to share a funny story. The last one his teacher chose was written for 4th graders. Seriously, it was a chapter book about the pilgrims. Although I do have a teaching degree, I just try to smile politely because I don't want to be one of THOSE moms. Anyways, thanks for the heads up about a title for little ones. Happy Holidays!

  2. Yes, Elie, this book is out. And they read it aloud to the 300+ or so kids at the event, and they laughed uproariously! Do check it out!
