Give-Aways

Winter Wonderland Books Give Away!

EDIT: The Giveaway is now closed. The winner will be announced soon. Check back soon for the winner. Good luck one and all 🙂

Here is an email we got a couple days ago from one of our readers:

Hello,
I have been following your home school curriculum and have bought the books for them from an online store that sells used books. Well I had bought several books (I can Let you know which ones) and they got lost in the mail. The store very kindly replaced them but a couple of days ago (and about 6 weeks late) a very batter box showed up with the original books still in fine shape. I contacted the company and they said there was no need to send them back and if I don’t have any use for them I should donate them. If you would like to give them away on your blog I can send them to you (or directly to the winner). I understand if you are not interested I just thought I would ask.

Thank you for everything!
~Sarah

My response was basically OMG… how awesome! Yes, we’d love to help you donate your books to one of our readers! So, she sent the list…

How Do you know it’s winter?
Hibernation
Animals in Winter
Gregory’s Shadow
what Makes a shadow?
The mitten
under the snow
Grady the goose
What is Migration?
Valentine Bears
Grizzly bear family book
Snow Dogs! Racers of the north
Owl Moon
Where are the night animals?
St.Patrick’s day in the Morning.

She wanted to make sure that everyone was aware that the books are used but they are still in great shape. She bought them from betterworldbooks.com

So there you have it. Sarah is donating 15 books to one lucky WFA reader. Even if you are not doing the Winter Wonderland Unit, how cool would it be to receive ALL these books, and all the better that the have been previously loved 🙂

For your chance to win, simply leave a comment here telling us who you would be sharing the books with.

A winner will be drawn at random on Monday, January 17 at 9:00 p.m. EST. Then Sarah will have the books off to you “toot sweet”!

BTW… Sarah is sharing these books out of the goodness of her heart. She is also paying the shipping for the books to be sent to the winner. She never mentioned it, but I happen to know Sarah is the owner of the Etsy shop Nothing But Soap. I buy soap from her for myself and for gift giving. As a way of saying Thank You to her for her generosity, do yourself a favor and pay her shop a visit!

Thank you Sarah, and good luck to everyone!

    That is extreme awesomeness! If I won these, I would share them with my 6-year-old daughter as well as her home nursery friends!

    I just saw this, seven minutes before contest ends! Maybe 7 is my lucky number today. Thanks for the great opportunity and your generosity.

    What a wonderful collection of books! I would love to share them with my three little kids, and will donate them to our local library when we’re done. Share the love of learning!

    I would be sharing these books with my youngest children (10,8, 4) and my five grandchildren (4, 4, 2, 2, 1) who visit weekly for preschool. We followed your Autumn studies, and haven’t been able yet to buy the books for the Winter unit. What a lovely example of generosity for her to offer these to one of your blog readers!

    Blessings,
    Laureen

    Oh my gosh how generous!!! If I win I’ll be sharing the books with my little man (age 4) and my baby girl (just over 20 months). We had so much fun with Harvest Time but we haven’t yet started Winter Wonderland (craziness post-vacation and colds all around!!).

    This is such a great oppertunity for someone, and such a nice thing for someone to do. I will be sharing these books with my daughter Audrey who just turned two, she loves books. im looking at homeschooling because she dont turn 3 until october and would not be able to go to school until she is almost two. She is a very smart child so that is why im wanting to atart early instead of late. She is my first so i am new to this and dont have anything for her yet and just startimg to look into all the programs. I also will be sharing these with my 4 year old neice that my mom rasies, and has not done any schooling with her. I also plan on telling her about this website and the book website so my neice will be ready for school next year. I also have a thre year old nephew who is also very smart, and of course my other daughter who is 4 months.
