Earlier this week, I started book diaries for the little ones, and mentioned that I’m going to start one for myself. I’ve got lists of everything I read last year on here, and I have a partial list of this year, so I’ll probably go back that far, although there’s a huge temptation to start a list of everything I remember reading over the years as well.
I really do wish that I’d always had a list, and I’m hoping that starting diaries now for the little ones will start a habit that they keep up. I’ll be dropping hints to the older two, although I suspect I’ve missed the boat with this idea with them.
Because I think it’s a lovely idea, I’m hoping that I’m going to start a couple of you off on it too, with these rather lovely prizes that I’ve got for you.
Prize 1 is Montys Magnificent Mane by Gemma O Neill (amazon affiliate link),
Monty the lion loves his long, golden mane. He thinks it s magnificent and he s not happy when his meerkat friends mess it up. Storming off to the waterhole, he’s cheered up by the flattery of a new friend…who turns out to be a hungry crocodile!
Monty runs away, leading the scary croc straight to his friends. With a huge ROAR! Monty saves the day, and realises that friendship is more important than good looks.
with a rather funky cat notebook and pen.
Prize 2 is a paperback copy of The Mummyfesto by Linda Green (Amazon affiliate link)
When Sam, Jackie and Anna successfully campaign to save their children’s school lollipop lady, they are asked by a TV reporter if they fancy standing in the general election.
It is, of course, a crazy idea: Sam’s youngest son has an incurable disease, Jackie is desperate for another child and her mum is struggling with Alzheimers, Anna’s teenagers – and marriage – are in danger of going off the rails.
But sometimes the craziest ideas turn out to be the best. And just think what they could do if they got to run the country…
with a rather swish purple soft feel notebook and violet pen. Look good don’t they? Entry is via the funky rafflecopter widget hopefully showing up below – the only mandatory entry is to leave me a comment here on the blog with the first book you remember reading. There are some other options if you want to gather extra chances to win.
Good luck – and don’t panic if your comment doesn’t show up instantly, first time commenters are moderated in an attempt to minimise spam. I check daily though, and free any trapped commenters I find.
Notebooks were purchased from The Works, and here’s a handy affiliate link in case you feel like exploring what goodies they have, while supporting my blog 🙂
