It's exciting to celebrate bloggers' successes. My dynamo friend Terra, aka Campbell Lawson, recently published not one, not two, but three children's books: Whereditgo, Rock n Friend, and Somebody.
Here they are:

the other side to the story
Terra's playfulness with words mixes with warmhearted messages that left me smiling. (My nephew's going to be thrilled with this Chanukah package.) The themes are relevant to all children: not being able to find something, feeling unimportant, and longing for a pet. Buster York adds colorful, detailed and fun illustrations.
In Rock n Friend, halfway through the book we read "There are two sides to every story." Flip the book over, and a new story begins from the second main character's perspective. This uniquely creative two-for-one will be given to the winner of my giveaway. I'm hoping and assuming you have at least one young child in your life. To win, you need not tweet, click a "thumbs-up" icon, alter your facebook status, vlog yourself doing back-flips in the snow, or even follow me (or Life by Chocolate). Just leave a comment below telling me who you'd give the book to. I'll chose the winner at random. Terra/Campbell Lawson will send an autographed copy to the recipient.

Terra wrote these books in her grand mothers' honor; Campbell and Lawson are their maiden names.
The three will be available on Amazon in January, 2012 and can be found now at www.campbelllawson.com

Good luck and have a playful week!
Wow, that really is an excellent giveaway. Good luck to all of the contestants. It must be great to see your friend fulfil her dreams as well I bet, nice post as always Robyn!
ReplyDeleteOh Shucks, the smile on my face might just be glued here for the rest of the day...Your words - so kind - your thoughts - so genuine! I thank you my friend for all of your support and best of luck to your readers!!!
ReplyDeletejoin in,
ReplyDeletebut i cant speak english well.
my english is bad :(
Not entering to win because I have no idea who I'd send the books to!
ReplyDeleteLeast you kept the contest simple, Robyn.
Congratulations to Terra. This is quite an achievement.
ReplyDeleteAt first I thought I have no idea who I would give the books to. And than I thought, I have friends with little kids. Than I thought, do any of them read to their kids. I think a couple do.
ReplyDeleteThat would be a great gift.
I had a Sesame Street book that was two-sided and I just thought it was the coolest book. I've never seen another one like it.
I have lots of little ones to buy for this Christmas - I'll check out the links.
ReplyDeleteCongrats to her and it's very nice of you to post this for her. You don't have to put me in the drawing, but congrats to whomever wins!
ReplyDeleteTerra, my pleasure. I didn't even mention all the yummy caramels. I didn't want to have to explain why they aren't in the picture.
ReplyDeleteThanks, all. I'll likely keep this going for another couple days.
Be well. Be playful.

Aww, way cute. I can't enter...all the kids I know are all grown up, but planning to have one next year sometime. Will keep these books in mind.
