THANKS FOR PLAYING!
Woo hoo! *does a little dance*
Thank you for unintentionally nudging me to add lines from Anne of Green Gables and Peter Pan to my quote files. I only regret that my copies of The NeverEnding Story and The Westing Game are stuck in storage so I can't tackle those right now as well!
Thanks! Now I can say that SOMETHING went right today.
Thank you so much for hosting these fun and cool contests for we bibliovores. :)
Wow! Last week I got TEAM MOON as a prize for winning Book Buds "First Words" Contest. This week I win a Starbucks gift card. I think I'll keep trolling the Kidslitosphere for more competitions! Anybody giving away a car?
Nancy,
I did email you my snail mail address the other day. Didn't you get it?
Nope! Can you email again please?
Otherwise, I may have to hand-deliver it when I'm up in Massachusetts for Thanskgiving. My parents are in Springfield.
Nancy,
I emailed you again Wednesday night.
