How exciting and what an amazing giveaway. I'm going to post on Twitter, Facebook and tell one more writing friend. Congrats on the paperback!
Hooray for First Book! Thank you and the others who donated to such a worthy cause! And hooray for OLIVIA BEAN!
Wow! This is a great giveaway.
Thank you for offering it
I'm not yet familiar with this book but it looks like one I'd like to have to offer my students!

Congrats! You are an inspiration!
Emailed it along to two local children librarians who are friends. Also emailed it to my cousin who teaches 3rd grade. Thanks for the generous giveaway!
I've posted to my Facebook page and will e-mail my local library.
Donna, I'll post on my FB, email my friendly librarians at the AADL where I worked, and post to the Michigan SCBWI. Should get you more than 3 others...to spread the word. Have fun in Fort Worth!

I shared the link on Facebook and with three friends!
I told all my librarian colleagues about the giveaway and Olivia Bean!
Great contest!!! What if I will be gone on March 26th, my birthday? How will I know if I'm a winner? Terrific website! I'll tell all the writers in my critique group.

CONGRATS to FIRST BOOK!
Thanks Danielle H. for letting me know about this.
What a great giveaway! I'm excited to share with teacher friends.
What a great giveaway!! I posted it on FB and will spread the word to my grade level when we return to school!
I came across your books and web-site because…. one of your books was picked as a summer reading last year for my niece (13) who attends a private parochial school; Olivia Bean was one of her favorite reads out of the 3 books that were chosen. I am also an educator and found this book very age appropriate and a fun read as well. Thank you for writing such an inspirational book, giving children a desire to want to read it from front to back and not put it down until they have finished it completely. Thank you also for giving back and inspiring others to share and encourage our kids to read!
I emailed three teacher friends! Can't wait to Skype!
Three of my very favorite things...trivia books and a giveaway! Many thanks for the opportunity and good luck to all who comment!
I love the idea of this promotion. I shared it with several teachers in my building. Congratulations on Olivia Bean, Trivia Queen being released in paperback.
Wow...what a gift to be treasured forever. I teach multiple grade levels and promote literacy daily. One of my classes in particular admitted to never reading at all before I had them-now they can't put books down. This would be a great surprise for them. Thanks for the opportunity. I'll pass the word on tomorrow!
I love Olivia Bean Trivia Queen and Jeopardy just like Olivia does. Thanks for the giveaway opportunity Donna!
This is a fabulous way to promote your new book! I look forward to reading this exciting new title.
How perfect. Olivia Bean is on my never-ending Titlewave "wishlist." Thank you for this opportunity. I am sharing with all my ELA teacher friends.
Olivia Bean sounds like just the book for some of my students. Thanks for the opportunity to win.
Just found this and can't wait to share with my media specialist friends. The girls at my school will love this book!
