CHRISTMAS GOODNIGHT GIVEAWAY

 

GIVEAWAY TIME!!!

This time last year was super exciting, as I was debuting my first picture book. It’s a labor of love to illustrate a picture book….one that I consider awesome and amazing and something I’d do again and again and again.

Today, I’m giving away THREE signed copies of A CHRISTMAS GOODNIGHT!

 

This sweet story was written in the style of Goodnight Moon, where the reader is saying goodnight to all the Nativity characters….first to the real life story, and then to his own Christmas surroundings.

It’s a sweet, simple lullaby text, not complex and narrative, but one that makes for a perfect bedtime story.

You can read reviews HERE

 

 

FOR THE GIVEAWAY: 

1) Leave a comment below

2) Make sure you enter your email address in the location asked in the comment box

3) Giveaway Closes THURSDAY at 10pm EST

4) I’ll announce the THREE winners Friday

OPTIONAL EXTRA ENTRIES:

1) Like my facebook page here, and then comment below to tell me

A gift for you Mothers

This week, in honor of motherhood, I’m linking up with Lil’light of Mine to offer a giveaway and free gift to all you mothers!

I absolutely love being a mom. One of the reasons I love it so much, is because my mother LOVES being a mom. It’s her life’s work. The older I get, the more I realize how unique she is, in that she’s never treated motherhood like a secondary career, or the person she becomes when her work is done. She’s a mother 24/7 and will drop anything to listen or be with her children. She loves, loves, loves, her kids, and really spends her days working and worrying and caring for them. Today actually marks a big milestone for her, in that her baby is going on a church mission for 18 months, which is a really big event for a parent (and child) because they will leave home, and only communicate through email once a week their entire service.  Today is the day that her last child isn’t really a child any more. And I can only imagine how that feels.

Kids grow up. But Mothers stay Mothers. Just think about that for a moment.

Today I want to celebrate Mothers in just a small way, by first noticing what I’ve learned about my mom, and letting you comment with one thing that you’ll go to your grave with that you’ve learned from yours.

I could write a mini series on all that my Mom has taught me, but I won’t get all deep and mushy here. But one thing I’ve learned from her this year, is that she is the kind that makes little people feel important. She’s extremely happy when she is with little children, and she often is seen rolling on the floor and laughing hysterically with toddlers…completely at their level. But she is also gifted in bouying up the grownups that “feel” little, and maybe don’t have the social status that goes along with being recognized or valued. That is her gift. She notices the unnoticed, the small and the little..which are often the biggest people of all. She has the greater perspective that sees beyond and into what “is” and is one of those very “real” people. No fluff…just pure and real.

So, this week, I want to celebrate this amazing role of motherhood. The hardest thing I’ve ever done, and yet the best. Giving your all into this job takes a lot of heart, guts and courage.

I wanted to give something to you Mothers that would be special and meaningful to say thank you for the care you put into your work every day. I know, because 90% of you are moms! And I get to interact with so many of you, and it’s seriously such a treat! I am so lucky that I didn’t choose to work in a field with gruff, grumpy men. Truly! ha:)

ENJOY FREE SHIPPING on all orders May 2-5th

Spring Giveaway #3: French Kids Eat Everything

I don’t have to introduce this one too much, do I?

I’ve written about it here and here, but if you are a new reader today, let’s just say that FRENCH KIDS EAT EVERYTHING is a gold nugget in parenting books. I was so honored to illustrate it, and I have been so pleased with how well it’s done in the couple weeks that it has been out.

In an effort to reveal how certain cultures teach their children about food….both directly and indirectly….Karen le Billon guides us through how to help our families slow down and notice our ways of eating and thinking about food, and how to help our children have happier and healthier eating habits. From focusing on whole foods, quality family dinner time, why we eat what we do and how, Karen makes the argument that at least in the French culture, children have a much different relationship to food than the average American child.

“A wonderful—and important—book. One family’s topsy-turvy culinary transformation becomes an in-depth exploration of the habits that have kept French kids loving food (and eating spinach) for centuries.” (Elizabeth Bard, author of Lunch in Paris )

I loved illustrating this book, and how happy it was to do! Karen’s approach to the book is witty, humorous and fresh…which was so fun to illustrate!

 

Today, I’m giving away 1 signed (by me) copy of the book!

Here’s the scoop:

1) Leave as many as 4 comment below: one regular comment, and 3 with the information about your facebook/Pinterest activity:

2) LIKE Karen’s Facebook page and leave another comment with the update

3) LIKE my giveaway post on FACEBOOK and come back here to comment with the update

4) REPIN or PIN this image on PINTEREST and then come back and comment about your PIN (My pinterest account here)

2) Entries will be closed at midnight Eastern Standard time

3) Check back tomorrow to see who the winner is

4) And, if you can right click one more time, spread the word the best way you know how: Twitter, Facebook, Good Reads, Like it on Amazon, tell your kid’s school teacher…Let’s keep the book industry stay alive, shall we? It’s a struggling world out there on many levels, and books haven’t been spared. Sharing the love, even just with a click, can make such a difference!

**only comments on this post will be counted, so make sure to comment about your other activity….thanks!**

Good luck!

 

**COMMENTS CLOSED** Congrats to Janey #90!
