Great Monday Give: Baby Animals

Good Monday everyone. In case anyone was wondering how my son's first week of school went, ponder no further. Or, if you're just here for the free stuff, read on... Yes, it's Monday again. The day when I walk to our bookshelves and pluck a vintage book from our collection to gift to one lucky reader. Today's free thing is a vintage copy of the Gyo Fujikawa board book classic, Baby Animals. To be entered to win this sweet book, all you have to do is comment on this post by Sunday, September 5th (September? ACK!) at 11:59 PM. A winner will be randomly selected and announced the next morning.

That said, the winner of last week's give of her very own copy of We Like Kindergarten is GinaChick. Congrats and send me your info to webe(at)soon.com.

On an end note, remember that the second Eyewitness Reports charity auction starts later on this morning featuring original art from famous and infamous children's book artists. Proceeds benefit 826LA, a Los Angeles-based nonprofit writing and tutoring center fronted by a fully-functioning convenience store for time travelers. I almost won the Mo Willems in the first auction, but then my wallet got the best of me! Maybe I'll get lucky and score some Dan Yaccarino this time... Oh, too... here's me on ohdeeoh.

  13. I have copies of My Favorite Thing and Let's Grow a Garden (very well loved copies from my childhood) and my newborn son loves them. He's only 3 months old but loves being read to. Baby Animals is on our current wishlist. We'd love to have it!
