FeedUn-Forgettable Friday: Winner and Red Sled
January 29, 2010 in Picture Book, Thomas Patricia, Un-Forgettable Friday, Young Adult Novels Tags: book giveaway winner, Patricia Thomas, Red Sled
Quick post this morning because I’m off to preschool land to sub for a friend whose infant is in the hospital with RSV. Prayers and well-wishes are appreciated. 
But before I leave, I wanted to reveal the winner of Watersmeet. Thank you again to everyone who left comments and to Ellen Jensen Abbott for her awesome interview on Wednesday about writing fantasy for teens.
**And the winner is. . .Donna V.! Congrats, Donna, you’ll love this book (and your granddaughter might, too!).
Today’s book is Red Sled by Patricia Thomas. I won this book on Clara Gillow Clark’s blog, and I absolutely love it. It is PERFECT for the youngest child; and for older children, it is a form of poetry called chiamus. So, teachers and parents can use this book as an example and then children can write their own. I am including the Amazon link if you want to check out more, but I plan to write a special post tonight (after I go to the movies with my hubby-date night!) or over the weekend to let you know the plot and some activities to do with the book!
Have a great Friday!

Hi Margo,
Thanks! I’m so excited to have won Watersmeet by Ellen Jensen Abbott. I love sharing books with my grandchildren.
Also, the Red Sled book you posted about today looks like a fun read.
I really appreciate reading all your interviews and learning about so many wonderful authors and books.
Keep up the great work!
Donna V.
