Love these giveaways! Some great books here!
Congrats on the two years!
Awesome! Thanks for the opportunity!
I love browsing through This Picture Book Life, Danielle! I love the variety of picture books you share; it’s helpful to check out books I normally might not pick up but also celebrate some favorites along with you. Love it!
Thanks, Danielle! I especially loved Flashlight and Kate Messner’s book. Christopher Silas Neal’s art is perfect for it. I just interviewed him for the book launch for Another Kind of Hurricane, by Tamara Ellis Smith, on Emu’s Debuts last week. He has a PB coming out with Candlewick next year called Everyone 🙂
I’m so intrigued by the title, EVERYONE! Sounds great.
For the second giveaway comment: I found out about you via Twitter first, and I’m pretty sure it was either Carter Higgins or Julie Falatko tweeting about you and your blog. 🙂 Happy blog-a-versary!
Thank you, Caroline! And thanks for letting me know. Those two are pretty sweet tweeters. 🙂
I have been enjoying your informative blog posts over a year. Thank you and congratulations!
That’s so great to hear!!
Love the book sets you are offering! Thank you for a chance to own them. And congratulations on turnin 2!
Great book selections!
Feeling greedy – but I wanna win!!!
Greedy for PBs is fine by me! 🙂
If you only knew how I abuse the whole family’s library cards!
Happy Anniversary! I love your blog- I love discovering new books to read. I don’t have enough library requests out right now- my librarian says I’m a slacker. Ha! 🙂
Thank you, Bethany! That is so nice to hear. (And I’m with you on the library holds. It’s an obsession.)
I found out about you through a very positive comment in a Facebook group.
Those are such great books… I need them! They’ll look fantastic in my library! 😉
Comment #1 – what I like most are your pairings of fab pb’s with the your own artwork or that of other indie artists. Introduces me to people and things that might otherwise take me years to discover!
Thanks for the feedback, Cathy! Helpful to know what floats a super smart reader’s boat. 🙂
Comment #2 – Walking in Caroline’s shoes – it must have been Carter or Julie that linked me to your fun, fab blog. Happy #2 and here’s to many, many more!
Yay! Happy blogaversary and here’s to many more!
To change the phrase: One can never be too rich, too thin or have too many picture books. Thanks for the opportunity!
Congratulations and thanks for a great giveaway. I think I first came across your blog on a recommendation from someone through 12×12. I love all the gorgeous illustrations you share — keep ’em coming!
Thank you, Andrea! Will do!
Great giveaways! Here’s to many more years!

Hi! My mother is a friend with Thirsty for Tea, and somehow I linked up with your blog from there. So happy I did — gives me great ideas for themes and books to introduce at our house, instead of reading the same old classics over and over again.
That’s lovely to hear! Thirsty for Tea is one of my favorite blogs AND people. 🙂 So glad these books are finding their way into your home.
Happy 2nd my dear!!! 🙂
Thank, Bon!
