Free Booksy Book Giveaway . . .

June 2, 2008 by Betsy Bird   1 comments

And you thought I would forget?  Nev-ah!

All right, you know the rules.  E-mail me by the end of today (today being Monday) if you would like to be placed in a drawing to receive one of the following books:

The Trouble Begins at Eight: A Life of Mark Twain in the Wild Wild West by Sid Fleischman
Lamplighter by D.M. Cornish
The Porcupine Year by Louise Erdrich

If you have a preference, please tell me what it is.  Otherwise they are all up for grabs.  Once I receive all the names I shall slip some of them in my Slightly Cracked Cereal Bowl of Fate and pull out the winners.  Remember that you can find my e-mail by clicking on my name at the beginning of each post.  Happy trails!
