Thanks to all those who so kindly wished me a happy board book birthday. The best part about this birthday - I didn't get any older. And with the TOO PURPLEY! board book out in the world, I'm still smiling.
Thanks also to everyone who entered PB Peek #12. If you have a minute, read through the fun and funny titles. I can just see the picture books behind those covers. I wish I could pick more than one. Please watch my blog for another PB Peek later this year.
If you didn't win today, I have another exciting way for you to win a critique.
Carrie Harris is celebrating the release of her new zombie book BAD TASTE IN BOYS and she's holding an auction to benefit the Giving Library at the University of Michigan C. S. Mott Children’s Hospital. Well guess who donated a critique!! So if that PB of yours is itching for a read. Here's the link:

Jean, what fun to read all the entries. Thanks, again, for doing this. Plus, I hope everyone gets over to Night Of The Giving Dead. There are so many great prizes and for such a great cause.

Thank you again for this wondeful opportunity. I just sent the manuscript off into the air waves to hopefully find the correct address. Funny how our words seem to know where to go. I'm trusting I sent it correctly. Thank you and best wishes. BTW I posted anonymous because I could'nt figure out the right way.

Congrats, Joy! Thanks again for the opportunity, Jean!
