Hey guys! Happy Friday! I’m going to do things a little differently this week for our Free Friday giveaway. This week I’m pulling some goodies from my own personal collection. Check out these adorable vintage children’s books illustrated by Dorothy Grider: Little Majorette & Little Swimmers. Both will we be awarded to one lucky winner!
To enter, simply leave a comment on this post telling us what your favorite book was as a child. This giveaway will be open until 10 comments have been posted. Once we have 10 comments, the giveaway will be closed and one winner will be chosen at random. Thanks for playing!

Sorry guys. Was having technical difficulties, but should be fixed now. Sorry Rosy. Here’s Rosy’s entry (left in the previous post):

Oh my gosh. Those were two of my very favorite childhood books. And now I know my daughter would LOVE them.

My very favorite childhood book is a schoolbook called, “Stories about Sally”. For years I couldn’t remember the name of it and it was long gone…but, by chance I did find it on eBay. So now I have it again! I collect vintage children’s books and graphics and hope to win these as I don’t have either. Thanks for the giveaway Fridays!

hmm, I don’t know if I had a favorite as a kid, but I love the Runaway Bunny by Brown. It is my favorite to read to my kids.

I loved the Secret Garden & the Boxcar Children series. Can’t wait til my little one gets big enough to share these chapter books. Thanks for hosting & sharing your treasure.

My favorite was another from this series – Little Ballerina. This would be a great addition to my daughter’s collection.

I loved the fairly tale, Sleeping Beauty, as a little girl. We went to see the play when I was 3 years old. I wish I could find that well worn – well loved Sleeping Beauty book. Thank you!

Sorry, I didn’t put my favorite. Mine were ‘A Little Princess’, and ‘The Secret Garden’, both my Frances Hodgson Burnett.
