Very First Giveaway!!
I’m very excited to announce that my very first giveaway will be Rockabye, by blogger Rebecca Woolf, aka Girls Gone Child! First, a bit about the book… Rockabye is Rebecca Woolf’s heartfelt and often hilarious account of what happens when an irrepressible young city girl gets pregnant by accident and decides to keep the baby and marry the boyfriend. Forced to come of age almost overnight, Woolf charts her transformation from odd-job doing, commitment-phobic, chain-smoking, party girl to wife and mother, trying to adapt to and at the same time rebel against the stereotypes and responsibilities of modern motherhood. Woolf never relinquishes the qualities of her free-spirited, pre-baby self, however, challenging herself to grow up without outgrowing her dreams - and embracing motherhood fearlessly in a style wholly her own. Second, how do you get one? **Leave a comment here anytime before 12 am, Saturday, April 12th (in other words by Friday night). You have a whole week - so don’t leave it until 11:59! I’ll then use a number generator to pick the comment… And that number comment will win a signed copy of the book from Rebecca herself! A small note about commenting? If you’ve never commented here before? Chances are that your comment will be moderated, so fret not if your comment doesn’t show up right away… I got it, and I know the time it came in. If you don’t want to chance it and want to buy the book, you can do so at the Amazon link below… Pre-order for delivery next week.
Comments are now closed, and giveaway is over.

Okay, I’ll bite. I’d love to read this.
I’ve been reading The Special Needs Parent for just a couple of weeks now, and I’ve enjoyed it a lot. I didn’t realize you had another blog until I found the link this morning. I think I’ve found another regular read.
