"Pass the Book"...and the winner is...

...Little Mummy!

Congratulations to Erica at Little Mummy for being the first to claim the "Children's Spaces" book in the inaugural round of "Pass the Book". I don't think it could have gone to a better home in the first instance. I am looking forward to Erica's first review and can't wait to see who nabs it next.

So here are the stats so far.

Total readers to date: 1 (i.e. me)
Total miles travelled so far: 0
Location of recipient: Edinburgh, UK
Distance to travel to reach Little Mummy from Bury St Edmunds: 388 miles

I hope that all recipients will add their stats into the comments box on this post, so we can keep track of how far the book has travelled.

If you want a chance of grabbing the book yourself...keep an eye on www.littlemummy.com, where you will also get lots of ideas on parenting and teaching.

Pass the book: Children's Spaces

Today I am launching a new tag-game of "Pass the Book". It's a giveaway with a difference. I am a keen recycler so I am giving away an almost brand-new book to the first blogger who requests it. It's like bookcrossing for bloggers

The rules are:
a) You must have a blog that you maintain regularly
b) After reading the book you must put up your own "Pass the Book" post, with a review of the book
c) In the post, you must must tag three blogs: The Originator, The Blogger who sent it to you and an update of who you passed it onto.
d) You must not use the recipient's address for any other purpose than to forward the book.

Today's book is a copy of "Children's Spaces (from Zero to Ten)", by Judith Wilson, published in 2005. I bought it yesterday and being only 137 pages I read it within an evening. It is a gorgeous little book with lots of advice on how to manage children's spaces with chapters on rooms for babies, girls, boys, playrooms, bathrooms and outdoor spaces. Full of lovely photos, it is inspiring and is easily digestible and memorable, which is why I am now passing it on. A full review of the book can be found at the Waterstones site.

If you'd like me to send this book on to you, just put your request in my comments box. I will then send it to the person who is shown in the comments to be the first requester. Remember you have to maintain a blog and be prepared to "Pass the Book". For obvious reasons please do not include your address details in the comments box. If you are the first to request the item, I will contact you directly for this information. The book will be sent by 1st Class Post.

If you love recycling, why not launch your own "Pass the Book".
