In honor of today's Equinox, I have decided to host a little autumn book giveaway here at my blog! You see, I recently discovered that we owned, not one, but two copies of The Story of the Wind Children, a precious book by Sibylle Von Olfers (whose more popular work, The Story of the Root Children you might know). I was going to add the extra copy to our donation pile when it occured to me perhaps one of my readers might be interested? :)
Well, if you are, please leave me a comment below, telling me something you love about fall. I will collect all your names in a basket and have the boys pick out a winner - to be announced bright and early Wednesday morning. :)
I will then send the winner her copy via post just as quickly as I can - it really is a sweet and fitting story for this time of year. In fact, we'll be using it in mid-October as a big part of our "Wind and Seeds" week.
So drop me a note if you're interested! And by the way, that picture was taken while we were camping in New Hampshire - when, surrounded by mushrooms and acorns and twirling helicopter seeds as we were, I couldn't help but wonder if we might spy our very own wind or root children in some mossy nook or cranny underfoot. ;)
Good Luck everyone, and Happy Fall!
