Great Monday Give: Amos & Boris

Good morning all. My son has recently started getting into audio books, and his current favorite is The One and Only Shrek Plus Five Other Stories by William Steig. It has been in constant rotation in our car for about a week, but sadly, it doesn't include one of my son's all time favorite Steig titles, Amos & Boris. (Though of late, he has been leaning toward Spinky Sulks, but I digress.) So, today the Great Monday Give is a well-loved but still great Scholastic paperback of said book. Great story. Great illustrations. To be entered to win, all you have to do is leave a loving and sweet comment on this post before Sunday ~ February 1st at midnight. (Egad! Is it February already!?!) Good luck kids.

And although she'll think I fixed this, the winner of last week's give is Sweet Pea & Beans, the mommy blogger and recent Etsy stationary sensation... and also a longtime reader and Internet buddy. I swear Meg, it was the blind scroll and point! Anyway, you know the drill... send me your info and when I feel so possessed I will ship the book to you right away, free of charge and so on and so forth... webe(at)soon(dot)com... yadda.

See you shortly with a new review everyone else!
