Trying to breathe (and a winner!!!)
Gasp.... I'm here..... Barely...... I think...... Maybe.......
I feel like I've been gasping for air for weeks now. I'm a HOME BODY and this past month has been one thing after another, and another, and another, and another (I'm beginning to hyperventilate again....).
The last two days have been spent at home. I took one step outside my door just to get some meat from our shop freezer and that's it! It has been heavenly. Plus it's been raining. Which makes me about the happiest woman alive.
Sorry for my tardiness in wrapping up this give away. I've got one more book coming up soon and yes, I do believe I saved the best for last!
I'm excited to be around more and get in some real blogging. I've missed it. I've missed all of you.
Now to the news.... Winner #7 is...... Amy Lynn!!! Please e-mail me at graceisblessedbygod@gmail.com with your address and I'll be mailing these books out soon! (By the way, I miss you Amy Lynn!!!)
Cant wait to see more of you all in the weeks to come!!!

Book #7
The next book I'm giving away was another one I grew up with. "James Herriot's Treasury For Children" recounts some of the sweetest stories from this country veterinarian. The stories are fun and interesting for children and some still make me tear up to this day, in a good way!
This copy looks like it lived at our house. Many of our books carry the same chew marks on the corner.
Other than the corner, the book is in great shape. Every page is filled with gorgeous pictures that help the stories come alive. Whoever gets this one is getting a good one!

Book #6
The next book I'm giving away is "Baby Island". This book was my Mom's favorite when she was a little girl. It proceeded to be a favorite of mine and is now a favorite of my own girls.
It's a short fiction novel about two young girls who are shipwrecked with four babies. I mean, come on. What young girl doesn't dream of being shipwrecked with four babies??? It is a sweet adventure story filled with surviving on clams and bananas and has been great as a read aloud.

I'm not sure that I could recommend this as a "boy's story" but young girls are sure to love it!
Leave a comment quickly! I'll be drawing a winner first thing in the morning!

Book #5
I know I haven't drawn a winner for Book #4 yet (still time to enter that one!) but I thought I would get this one out for some entries too!
The Story of Ferdinand was one of the first books we got from the library and it was an instant favorite!
The illustrations are very simple and black and white, but they are packed with expression and the girls were so amused to watch what happened to the sweet little bull. If you ask Ella she will tell you, all Ferdinand wants to do is sit under the tree and smell the flowers.
When I ordered this book to give away I had to order an extra copy for our family as we all loved it!
