    I think I would choose one of the Ocean themed books since we are getting ready to head to the beach! Perhaps Secret Seahorse or Port Side Pirates! Thanks for the chance to win!

    We love all of Stella Blavkstone's bear books and give them for gifts. I would love to win her Walking Through the Jungle book. I think my 20 month old would love it. Thank you for having such a meaningful giveaway.
