Candlewick Press Holiday Book Giveaway!!!

logo

 

As a book loving mama with a book loving family, I received an early Christmas present recently.  A great selection of books for the holiday season.  What a great selection of books and we have been voraciously reading through them each night at bedtime.  Candlewick has been so gracious as to offer to host a giveaway for our readers!  One lucky Mommy Ramblings reader will win the four books below:

The Smallest Gift of Christmas written and illustrated by Peter H. Reynolds.

The Smallest Gift of Christmas Book

Roland can’t wait for Christmas Day, and when the morning finally arrives he races downstairs to see what is waiting for him. What he sees stops him in his tracks. Could that tiny present really be what he had waited all year for? It has to be the smallest gift he had ever seen! So Roland wishes for something bigger . . . and bigger . . . and bigger. But he’s still convinced there must be a bigger gift somewhere in the universe. Will he know it when he sees it? Peter H. Reynolds’s spare, free-spirited illustrations and heartwarming text make this be-careful what-you-wish-for story the perfect holiday gift.In Peter H. Reynolds’s whimsical holiday story young Roland learns that more isn’t always better — and rediscovers the magic of home.

Forever written and illustrated by Emma Dodd.

Forever

Love between parent and child lasts a lifetime; this is the beautiful message in Emma Dodd’s Forever. Featuring stunning, foil-embellished illustrations of a polar-bear family, this book makes a handsome addition to any nursery bookshelf and is the perfect read-aloud for parent-child bonding at bedtime.  How long does a parent’s love last? Forever!

Toys Galore
If you’re game, open up the world’s wackiest toy chest, where anything and everything can turn into nonstop, action-packed fun. Once again, Peter Stein’s playful verse and Bob Staake’s uproarious illustrations come together in an explosion of color and whimsy, while imagination takes center stage as the best toy of all. Toys Galore is one playground you won’t want to miss!  Look out below! Let your creativity soar as toys of all shapes and sizes squeak, zip, and whirl across the page.

Dragonology

Do you believe in dragons? Now, for the first time, the long-lost research of renowned nineteenth century dragonologist Dr. Ernest Drake is presented in all its eccentric glory, happily bridging the gap between dragon legend and fact. The meticulous Dr. Drake assigns Latin names to various dragon species, ruminates on why dragons are able to speak, speculates on how they could fly, and explains the true purpose of their notorious hoarding habits. Here are just a few of DRAGONOLOGY’S fascinating features:

— Novelty item on every spread, including tactile samples of dragon wings, dragon scales, and dragon skin
— Booklet of dragon riddles (indispensable to the burgeoning dragonologist)
— Sealed envelope containing a powerful dragon-calling spell
— Embossed faux leather cover with silver foil, encrusted with three dragon gems

In his afterword, Dr. Drake reveals that one of the crucial goals of dragonologists is to preserve the magnificent creatures of their study wherever possible – a goal this tongue-in-cheek volume most affectionately achieves. An incomparable gift for secret dragonologists everywhere!  For true believers only, a lavishly illustrated reproduction of a legendary volume by the world’s most distinguished dragonologist. Don’t let it fall into the wrong hands!

Magic Cabin, Rubens Barn, Little Rubens Party Collection Dolls Review & Giveaway!!! #HolidayGiftGuide

Magic-Cabin-Logo

I love dolls, I always have. Growing up with a mother who loved dolls and finally had a girl who loved dolls as much as her, I was showered with dolls.  At Christmas there would be so many dolls awaiting me and I was probably one of the only kids who had a mom suggest they get a Madame Alexander baby doll in the Walt Disney World gift shop rather than the typical stuffed Minnie.

I was very much the same with my daughter and relished buying her dolls of all kinds.  Last Summer I was so impressed with Emil, a large Rubens Barn Original Doll that I could not wait to get another Rubens Barn cutie in my arms.  Well, that opportunity arrived and Little Meiya may be smaller than the Original dolls but she is tipping the cuteness scales! She has a full head of that signature downy soft black hair and a darling headband with large bow.

Little Meiya Rubens Barn Doll

Her adorable bubble romper is done in a bright cupcake fabric with a top in bright pink with white polka dots that matches the polka dot band of her headband.  Her sweet little toes peek out and her big brown eyes beg you to give her a hug.  She has a weighted bottom so she is quite substantial and able to sit without toppling over.  In the Little Rubens Party Collection you will find Meiya and many friends who would just love to come home with you.

Rubens Barn Dolls are machine washable so they can join your child on their daily adventures.   I warn you though, these dolls are addicting and you can’t have just one, which has me thinking about who should be next to join our family : ). Mommy Ramblings loves Rubens Barn Dolls so much she is adding them to our 2013 Holiday Gift Guide!  

Little Rubens Barn Party Collection Doll

These colorful and cozy Little Rubens Party dolls are delightful dears your little ones will love! They’re the little cousins to the larger Rubens Barn® dolls that bear their same name. Each comes dressed ready for fun. Choose Little Anna, Little Emil, Little Harry, Little Ida, Little Maria, or Little Meiya. No matter which Rubens Barn character you choose for your own child, he or she is sure to be an enchanting friend for life.

The handmade dolls are machine washable, and their removable clothes can be hand washed.

• Chubby, cuddly dolls
• Weighted bottoms
• Designed in Sweden
• Each is dressed ready for a party
• Sparkly eyes, downy hair, and pixie faces

For ages 2 and up.

Available Styles
Little Anna
Little Emil
Little Harry
Little Ida
Little Maria
Little Meiya

Size
15-1/2″ tall

Since 1995, Rubens Barn® (“Barn” means “children” in Swedish) has been creating beautiful dolls with a level of charisma, innocence, and heart, unlike any dolls on the market today. Designed in Sweden, each lovable soft-sculpted doll has a unique personality. All have the signature sparkly embroidered eyes, sweet pixie face, and weighted bottoms that make them feel much like a real baby when held. Their bodies are made from the softest fleece so that every hug is warm and comforting.

Magic Cabin – Childhood’s Purest Treasures is a company that I have been a customer of for over 2 decades, way before the internet, when I shopped like most through their catalog.  They have such a great selection of gifts for kids, if you are doing your holiday shopping be sure and visit their website for lots of great choices. Magic Cabin is having a special on Black Friday Free Ship + $10 Reward Card on Orders of $49+ Use Code: FSMC49

LOOKING FOR A NEW HOLIDAY TRADITION THIS COMING SEASON?
LOOK NO FURTHER WITH THIS UPROARIOUS, ALL-NEW
HOLIDAY-THEMED DVD FROM ONE OF TV’S GREATEST COMEDIANS!

CarolBurnettShow_ChristmasWithCarol_3D

THE CAROL BURNETT SHOW: CHRISTMAS WITH CAROL, the TV comedy legend’s very first holiday-themed DVD release! This all-new collection brings together three hours of some of the most memorable holiday episodes and sketches from The Carol Burnett Show, sure to have viewers ho-ho-ho’ing their way through the holidays.

This new DVD features two complete holiday episodes:

  • Show #813 (Original Air Date: December 21, 1974) – Looking for a Norman Rockwell-style Christmas, merry and stress-free? Then avoid the Higgins residence. Santa would. Despite Eunice’s “Merry Xmas” apron and Ed’s mile-wide red tie, there’s no joy in the house once Eunice’s younger brother Larry (Alan Alda) and Mama arrive. They all act like they sat on a bough of holly. Ed’s ready and eager to capture every Kodak-Christmas moment for posterity. On a happier note, Carol and Alan Alda find peace amid the commercial holiday hustle and bustle. He’s a soon-to-be unemployed department store Santa, while she’s all thumbs over in the gift-wrapping section. Their Nobody Does It Like Me duet fits like a warm Christmas sweater.
  • Show #1113 (Original Air Date: December 18, 1977) – Mr. Tudball and Mrs. Wiggins aren’t known for their rapport or business smarts. She moves about a mile an hour, and he talks with a bizarre hybrid accent. They awkwardly observe the “mistletoe” tradition. Once he breaks out some champagne, the boss and his secretary finally communicate-sort of. Tudball’s wife, played by Vicki Lawrence, pays a surprise visit to the office and catches them with their guards down, so to speak. Vicki and Tim Conway carefully measure Carol for a Christmas present, a dress and hat combo that looks like the handiwork of a true idiot. The smart money’s on Tim. Carol’s concluding song celebrates Christmas and all holidays of the year, large and small.

Add in some hilarious bonus sketches such as “Christmas Night Quarrel” w/ Carol and Sid Caesar, “Charwoman: Have Yourself a Merry Little Christmas” and Q&A w/Jonathan Winters (Show #017, December 25, 1967) and “The Twelve Days after Christmas” (Show #114, December 30, 1968) and you have a new Christmas tradition, to be watched again and again with the family every holiday season!

THE CAROL BURNETT SHOW: CHRISTMAS WITH CAROL
