Contest: Flute's Journey, The Life of a Wood Thrush
This time I'm giving away a gorgeous hardcover picture book, Flute's Journey: The Life of a Wood Thrush written and illustrated by Lynne Cherry. This is a slightly used copy, we bought it new and read it once.This is the type of picture book with gorgeous paintings and quite verbose making it suitable for all ages, up to perhaps 11. Click the picture to take a look inside. You can read my review here.
Contest will run until Feb. 26, with the winner randomly chosen and announced on Feb. 27. This contest is open to US and Canada only. Sorry, but International postage is too expensive for me.
