Great Monday Give: Sam, Bangs and Moonshine

School is inching up. Some have already started. Some are days away... in our case, weeks, but the summer is still fleeting and winding down to its bittersweet end. For all you slackers out there, now is the time to cram in that last minute summer reading. Which leads me to the give. A nice vintage paperback copy of Sam, Bangs & Moonshine. Great pictures. Great story. All you have to do to be entered to win is comment on this post before Sunday ~ August 23 ~ midnight. A winner will be selected and announced the following day.

Oh, and in case you were wondering... The winner of last week's give is Amy. I will ship it off to you as soon as I find it. You see, the boy has this nasty habit of pinching freebies off my desk and making off with them in the night. It's somewhere though... Send me your mailing info to webe(at)soon(dot)com. Tra la la and happy Monday!

    Oooh! Pick me! Pick me!
    Thanks for the coverage of Where's Wallace last week - that's one of our new favorites as well.

    Imagining a little boy, like a raccoon, peeping around the corner, twitching nose and alert eyes, watching, waiting for a chance to dart in and make off with an alluring book... The image made me smile, tenderly. Give him a hug from me!

    Hi

    Have got the vintage children's book bug on the other side of the Atlantic (England). Very pleasantly surprised to have come home from our local charity shop with a copy of Sam, Bangs and Moonshine. Decided to visit your site to see whether you'd mentioned it and low and behold you posted about it yesterday.

    Beautiful illustrations. Someone's going to be very lucky.
