“Winner of Giveaway for May Days and My Blog’s 2nd Birthday” by Linda Martin Andersen
“A Writer’s Playground”–A place to find wordplay, writing, and monthly calendar activities for kids and those young at heart.
Blow the horns, sing the verses, it’s time for “A Writer’s Playground” to celebrate its second birthday. But before the candles could be blown out or a slice of cake could be cut, my internal critic said, “Beware the Terrible Twos.” I am choosing to ignore that warning. Instead of fearing growing pains, I’ve decided to embrace the number “two” in a special way…
For my blog’s second birthday, I’m giving away a book about twin girls who share many things. It’s an easy reader by Grace Lin called Ling and Ting Share a Birthday.
The rules stated: Register for the giveaway by posting the name of a book with twin characters or a book written or illustrated by a twin. The birthday blog drawing will be May 22 (two twos) and the winner will be announced on or before the June 1 post.
And the winner of this giveaway is….
Joan Y. Edwards
Congratulations, Joan. I’m happy for you. Your copy of Ling and Ting Share a Birthday will be coming to your house soon.
Thanks to all who participated. It was fun sharing my blog’s second birthday with you.
