***THIS GIVEAWAY IS CLOSED***
Toys are great, but more often than not they end up broken and lost within a week. Ask anyone what their favorite toy was when they were little and they will probably have to think about it, but everyone remembers their favorite childhood book. (Mine was The Velveteen Rabbit.)
Imagine the great memories you can make with your child when you lead them into the book store and allow them to pick out their very own book- any book they want in the whole store.
We’re giving away (1) $25 Barnes & Noble Gift Card that’s good both online and at the store, so you can do just that.
Here’s how to enter:
The more you enter, the more chances you have to win!
Note: Please use a valid e-mail address.
1 lucky winner will be chosen randomly. Giveaway ends Wednesday, September 30, 2009. Winner will be reached by email, and announced on the blog 9/30/09.

So many books to choose from!!! I have to go with the one book I read so much that it fell apart.... Judy Blume - Starring Sally J. Freedman as Herself. As far as younger children's books, probably Goodnight Moon. :)
