the Great Chuckling Duckling Giveaway winners!

In our last post, the Z-Kids and I took a look at my new picture book "Chuckling Ducklings."  You can see that conversation by clicking here.  Along with that review, we included a pretty hefty giveaway, and now the time has come to announce our winners!

Many, many thanks to everyone for your interest in both the book and the giveaway.  I really appreciate all the very kind comments you left!

Here's a reminder of the prizes...  From the first 100 comments left on that review, 1 person out of every 5 is winning an original sketch of the animal they've requested.  After 100 comments we're drawing from 1 in every 10.  In addition to all that original art, we are also giving away 3 signed copies of my new book Chuckling Ducklings!

I may not have won, but I still enjoyed all the wonderful sketches (and cute catchphrases as well, very clever). Thanks so much for sharing!

Thank you!! They are all so cute! I love my calf. :)

Beth said...

I won! Thank you! My kids are very happy with the picture of a pig, because, as P said, I like pigs. I told him it wasn't a coincidence.

Thanks again.

I am new to these blogs...delightful is my thoughts here!! I love your raccoon SOOO much!!!! My hubby & I hand feed about 1/3 of our 30 - 35 raccoons spring, summer & fall. The rest of the year the food is left out each night for those who want it...most raccoons do a soft hibernation. Thanks and I am looking for the book JUST for that raccoon picture!

My squirrel kit is absolutely adorable! I just realised that maybe you wouldn't be able to see my e-mail address- I'm not sure how blogspot works. Just in case, it's joanna.hudgins@gmail.com.
