It’s always fun to unwrap a few presents at a birthday party—and since we’re turning three we’ve decided to give away some notebooks and pens to celebrate. All writers need a notebook for jotting down interesting words, snippets of conversation or ideas for the next story or poem. We have one writer’s notebook and pen to giveaway each day for three days (starting today!).
Here’s today’s notebook and pen giveaway. One spiral-bound notebook and a blue pen.
If you’d like to enter today’s notebook-and-pen-giveaway, there are two steps.
1) Leave a comment on this post, saying how you first heard about Alphabet Soup magazine.
2) Send our editor an email quoting a favourite first sentence in a children’s book you have read, and the book it is from. (Children’s book must be suitable for readers under 12.)
Note: this is not a random draw, we will choose the entry with the first sentence that makes us want to read (or re-read) the book in question!
I heard about it on Facebook!! Really nice catching up with all the news. A job well done Alphabet Soup!! Cheers xx Rani
Thanks, Rani. Good luck with the notebook comp. 🙂
I heard about it at a writing workshop for children! I got a a free copy and I loved it so much that I subscribed and I’ve loved it ever since the first issue I read.
Good to hear that, Erin. 🙂 (Don’t forget to email our editor to let us know a great first sentence in a book you’ve read!)
