Holiday Reading with Dover -- Enter to #Win Some Amazing Books the Whole Family Will Enjoy! #doverpubs #Giveaway

I love this time of year as it give me an excuse to snuggle up on the couch more with my girls and read to them.  Ever since they started to read on their own, they opted to go to their room to read, or don't need my help, as they are big girls now.  But, when the holidays roll around, they get excited for all the holiday classics I pull out, as well as selection of books I am sent to review for my annual holiday guide guide. 

 Today, I am not sharing reviews of books from Dover, but instead wanted to give Inspired by Savannah readers a chance to win almost $100 in books to enjoy with their family this holiday, or even donate to a local library, shelter, etc.  Here are the books up for grabs in this amazing holiday giveaway from Dover Books.

ABOUT THE BOOKS UP FOR GRABS IN THE DOVER HOLIDAY BOOK GIVEAWAY:

Lewis Carroll’s timeless tale comes to colorful new life in this beautifully illustrated storybook/craft guide combination.

Tell Me a Mitzi

“A must!” declared School Library Journal of this ALA Notable Book and National Book Award Finalist, now available in a glorious new hardcover edition. Blending fantasy and reality in a big-city setting, three unforgettable and wonderfully illustrated tales recount the adventures of Mitzi and her little brother as they attempt to visit their grandparents, recuperate from colds, and meet the president. “Thanks to Lore Segal’s antic words, and Harriet Pincus’s antic pictures, children will find Tell Me a Mitzi a hilarious picnic.” — Publishers Weekly


The Wedding Procession of the Rag Doll and the Broom Handle and Who Was in It

The Rag Doll was blessed with many friends — the Wisk Broom, the Furnace Shovel, and the Coffee Pot among them — but when it came time to marry, she chose the Broom Handle. On the day of their wedding, the bride and groom were attended by a fantastical procession of well-wishers: the Spoon Lickers, the Tin Pan Bangers, the Easy Ticklers, the Musical Soup Eaters, and other whimsical characters, all marching along in a manner befitting their extraordinary names. This tale of wedding pomp and madcap mirth comes from poet Carl Sandburg’s classic book of American fairy tales, The Rootabaga Stories. Marvelous drawings by Harriet Pincus, a noted illustrator of children’s books, enhance the tale. Out of print for years, the book is now available in a new edition that introduces the story and its gloriously antic art to a new generation of parade-lovers, wedding-goers, and everyone who enjoys a fanciful celebration.


Nine Days to Christmas: A Story of Mexico

Generations of readers have treasured this 1960 Caldecott Medal winner and its tale of a little Mexican girl’s excitement at the approach of Christmas. Ceci eagerly awaits Las Posadas, the traditional nine-day series of yuletide celebrations. This year she’ll lead the candlelight procession that reenacts Mary and Joseph’s trek to Bethlehem. Meanwhile, Mother takes her to the old marketplace to choose her very first piñata. Ceci is dazzled by the colorful array of options, and after making her choice has second thoughts about the fate of her piñata once the posada takes place. Graced by evocative illustrations, this international holiday classic is now available in a lovely hardcover edition.
