Autographed Book & Lettering Delights Giveaway!!!

I was absolutely delighted when Elizabeth Schoonmaker, author of the book Square Cat, emailed me a couple of weeks ago to let me know she loved my blog.

Say what?!? 
Made.my.day.

I hope that you have had the privilege of reading Square Cat. It is an adorable story about Eula and the difficulties she faces as a square cat - living in a world with friends who are all round. 

A sweet book about friendship and self-acceptance!

Elizabeth has graciously offered to give away an autographed copy of her book through my blog. She said that she will personalize it (to you, your class, for a child's birthday- whatever you choose!)

Check out what other people are saying about Square Cat here:



The winner will also receive a $15 gift certificate to Lettering Delights!!!

I just joined and am L-O-V-I-N-G all of the fonts and graphics. 
Check out LETTERING DELIGHTS HERE. 


There are 3 ways to enter this giveaway:

1. Follow my blog and leave a comment saying you have done so. (If you are already a follower just leave a comment letting me know!)

2. Blog about my giveaway and leave me a comment with a link to the post. 

3. Leave a comment about your favorite Lettering Delight font.  

*All entries must be received by
 Sunday, October 23rd 11:00 p.m. 

Winner will be selected through a random drawing and will be announced on
 Monday, October 24th!


Good Luck!!!

    I am OBSESSED with LD! Can't believe I have to choose just one! But I guess my go-to font would be LD Delightful. It's just so delightful!

    I have not heard of this book but I am certainly going to be on the lookout for it now. I have followed your blog for awhile now. Thanks for the chance to win such a nice book .
    I do enjoy reading your blog and seeing the kinds of things you are doing with your students.
    I teach a full day kindergarten in Alberta Canada.
    Regards, Anna

    Well, I'm not much of a blogger, but am definitley a follower - Rachel & I read your blog & newsletter every Sunday or Monday, sometimes even from my smart phone because she doesn't want to wait til we're home!

    I've gotten a bit obsessed with LD recently... my favorite font is probably Cool Cat, but there's many more favorites too!
