This was one of my all time favorite give-aways simply because the comments it inspired were so fun and thoughtful. Thanks to everyone who participated and shared their memories! I enjoyed reading each one and loved being reminded of some more of my own.

What a beautiful book. My sisters and I would spend hours, days, weeks, years playing 'house' in dad's shed. Ever supportive, dad moved out the work table and moved in some second hand furniture to complete our impromptu cubby. I loved that place.

Thank you for the fun giveaway! One of my favorite childhood (and schoolyard) games was called five stones, and is similar to jacks, I think, except it involved little pyramidal beanbags. Here is a link to a post about them: http://www.ikatbag.com/2009/06/five-stones.html
Please contact me with your mailing info so that I can pass it on to the publishers. Thanks again to Rae Grant for creating another wonderful book!
congrats to the winners!
