The release date for CHAINED is just a little over three months away! One thing I'm really looking forward to is talking to kids about the story.
Borrowing a great idea from author Caroline Starr Rose, I'm donating a book club kit to a classroom or reading group.
The kit will include:
- Ten hardcover copies of CHAINED
- A CHAINED tote bag
- Bookmarks and signed bookplates for each member of your class or group
- Up to an hour-long Skype visit
Everyone who enters will receive CHAINED bookmarks for their readers.
So, if you're a teacher, librarian, or reading group coordinator for grades 3-8, fill out the form below to enter the giveaway.
And I realize that since the book releases in May, it might be a difficult time of year for teachers to plan the reading and discussion of a new novel, but I figured I'd go ahead and post it now so it'll be ready for you to use either this school year or next. The Skype visit can be planned for whatever month is best for you and your group.
Contest is open from now until May 1st. Good luck!
That sounds awesome! It must be exciting to have your book coming out so soon. If I were a teacher or librarian, I'd definitely enter!
