Welcome to Day 12! How many times have you moved? I never moved as a kid, well, switched schools, but that’s not a pack-up-and-move move. I’ve made up for it as an adult though, let me tell you. I saw this one and thought the theme was handled very well. Plus, it was originally printed…

Welcome to Day 11! And I’ve picked a winner! YVONNE MES! Come ON DOWN! You’re a winner! Email me your address (kathyellendaviswriter@gmail.com) and Wumbers will be on the way to you! I’ve never been out on a huge ship before. We always took the ferry from Plattsburgh, NY (my hometown) across Lake Champlain to Burlington,…

Woo-hoo! Day 10! Did you ever read CDC? by William Steig? I remember LOVING it as a kid! And I really like Amy Krouse Rosenthal and Tom Lichtenheld. So when I saw this book on sale at Hicklebee’s, I had to scoop it up! And give a copy away too! Title: Wumbers Published by: Chronicle…

Welcome to Day 9! I’m going to catch up on responding to your comments today/tonight and I’ll start compiling entries for the next giveaway, which will be TOMORROW! Stay tuned! For today’s book I have no story. I was NEVER a vampire for Halloween. I read Twilight, but I was ALWAYS “Team Werewolf” And dancing?…

Good morning! Hello Day 8! Anyone else play basketball? I did all through middle school and high school. I studied up in a book called, “Basketball for Dummies.” And to this day, I still learn A LOT about sports through books. But also through practicing! I played in high school and college as well. One…

Of course you do. EVERYONE wants to be in a band. Ok, maybe you don’t. I won’t judge you either way. A long time ago I tried to play guitar. I’m right handed, but I’ve always played air guitar left handed. I got laughed out of the first music shop I went too when I…

Here we are, Day 6. First, let’s do the giveaway winner! A bit of how I pull a winner: I’ve gone through all the comments and made a spreadsheet of what we’ve read. Yup, it’s a lot of work, but it’s cool to see it all organized. Each entry is numbered. Then I head over…

Yeah, I know, longest title ever. Sorry. There’s just so much to put in here! First, welcome to Day 5! I have a friend who has two kids, now 12 and 10. They’ve been able to knit since they were 4 or 5. They can’t believe I didn’t start until I was in my twenties!…

How’s everyone feelin’ today? I hope not grumpy! I’m not one to get grumpy. I’m more of a “sunny side of life” kind of gal. My most recent grumpy episode was almost seven years ago now, when I was firefighting in Arizona. I was also the engineer and drove the fire truck. The day I…
