Now, onto the things generally expected in a giveaway: author information and details. Never having hosted one of these before I was rather lucky in that Miss.Simcox seems to know what she's doing. She promptly sent be both her bio and an interview, both of which can be read below. The details regarding the giveaway are quite simple. Merely fill sign into the Rafflecopter forum at the very end of this post with the e-mail adress of your choice and choose one or all of the options to enter. I don't like giveaways that run forever, so i've decided to make this one last a week(06/21--06/28). There are three international copies(electronic books, not print) available in this giveaway. Good luck!
Author Bio~

A: Love this question! Hogwarts School in Harry Potter

Reading was the one element that shaped my childhood, and which sparked my creative imagination which i have never lost. Literature that is aimed at a younger audience essentially still has the main elements for a great read, just without the 'adult' themes that don't always necessarily make a book increadible. I would apsolutely love to have the oportunity of reading this, as it sounds totally origonal and an inspried storyline, that would be just as readable as an older work of fiction. x
ReplyDeleteI agree--books do not need adult themes in order to appreciated by adults. On the contrary, sometimes the inclusion of adult themes in stories feel incredibly forced and only seem to exist for the sole purpose of boosting the maturity of the book. The beauty of really well written children's books like The Secret Garden or Watership Down is that you can grow with them without having growth forced upon you. If you're in a really philosophical mood you can pick up a children's book and find philosophy. If you're merely nostalgic you can pick up a children's book and just have fun.
DeleteI loved to read as a child and read every chance I got. As an adult I still love to read children and teen books. julierupert@gmail.com
