Picnic at Camp Shalom Week & Book Giveaway!!!

Happy Monday all! This week, we are celebrating the release of PBJ Deb Melmon's brand new picture book! There is information about a Camp Shalom book giveaway at the end of this post, so keep reading!) Picnic at Camp Shalom is a sweet story about a brand new friendship between two girls. It takes place at - you guessed it - Camp Shalom, which sets a great stage for the story.. It's about so many things besides camp, though — new friendship, misunderstandings, dealing with teasing, and unique-sounding surnames!

The art is sublime! Deb really brings you into the girl's world between her material technique and her composition of the pictures. I love ALL the little details in this book (and there are many, and there's one in particular that makes me laugh pretty good).

We will be featuring special "Camp Shalom" posts all week!

BOOK GIVEAWAY: Leave a comment on any post this week and be entered into a drawing to win a copy of Picnic at Camp shalom. The cut-off is Saturday night, so please leave your comment by then!
