Winner of Raccoon Tales by Joy DeKok

 Our congratulations go out to Jenni, winner of a copy of Raccoon Tales by Joy DeKok!

Raccoon Tales is the true-life journey in the first year of the lives of these little “wash bears.” Written in easy-to-read verse, author, Joy DeKok, tells the story with tenderness and energy. Readers will leave the story glad they came, knowing more about raccoons, and what a wild animal rescue and release looks like. Illustrator Leslie Helen Colwin’s art brings the story to life. 

Sad that you didn’t win a copy of this wonderful book? We understand, but don’t fret. Just click on over to Joy’s B4K website to pick up a copy.

Thanks to all who participated in this giveaway.  Look for more giveaways coming soon from The Children’s and Teens’ Book Connection!
