Who? Me?

I'm never a prize winner. Giveaways, raffle tickets, the lottery, I don't even bother to enter, so I was surprised to open my email today and read the following:

Hi, Ellen,
Thanks for entering the Barefoot Books giveaway on my site. Guess what? You won! Your comment indicated that you want the Barefoot Book of Faeries . . . is that still your choice? If so, all I need is your address so that Tammy can ship the book out to you!

Well, okay, so I do enter drawings on occasion, but I never, in a million years, expect my name or number to be drawn. You're probably wondering then how did this happen? Well, for one, I read snickollet's blog (and you should too), and two, I can't resist a giveaway for a book.

Commenters were asked to choose a selection from Barefooot Books (yes, go check them out now), and at first glance I chose the Barefoot Book of Faeries (based on Grace's obsession with all things Fairy, thank you not-so-much, Walt Disney). After a little more consideration I changed that to Emily's Tiger (because, well, I have a tiger in my house too, read Grace).

If you click through to Barefoot Books from Snickollet's site, you can get a discount on your purchase, so go forth and buy books. Thanks, Snickollet and Barefoot Books, you made my Tuesday.
