Win A Copy Of Grace Lin's "Where The Mountain Meets The Moon"

March is National Reading Month. ChinaSprout is celebrating by giving you free shipping on all book purchases through March 20th. We are also giving away a copy of Grace Lin's book, "Where The Mountain Meets The Moon."

Grace is one of my favorite authors for young children. Her simple and colorful illustrations remind me of Chinese folk paintings. Plus, her stories really capture what it is like to grow up Asian in a Western country. ChinaSprout was fortunate enough to work with Grace on our "One Year In Beijing" book. Her beautiful illustrations take me back to many of my own experiences growing up in Beijing -- the excitement of Lantern Festival, visiting Yellow Mountain, eating delicious candied haws, families gathering for the holidays and studying very hard in school.

There are three ways that you can enter to win the "Where The Mountain Meets The Moon" book:
  1. Post your favorite Grace Lin book title below in the response section of this blog;
  2. Post your favorite Grace Lin book title on our Facebook Page; and
  3. Post your favorite Grace Lin book title on Twitter (you must include @ChinaSprout in your post).
You can enter up to three times -- one entry for each platform (our blog, our Facebook Page and via Twitter). Entries will be accepted starting at midnight, March 14 and the deadline for entry is midnight, March 21, 2011. The entries will be catalogued by entry date and time, and the winner will be chosen via a random number generator software program. The winner will be chosen within 2 days of the entry date deadline. The winner must respond within 5 days of receiving notice, or the entry will be forfeited, and another winner will be selected. You must live in the United States or Canada and be 18+ to enter. Read the Official Giveaway Rules for further guidelines.

Good luck, and happy reading!

Too hard to choose! Where the Mountain Meets the Moon was a huge hit with my family, but my daughter and I loved the utterly charming Ling and Ting.

Our favorite is Red is a Dragon and the page "Pink is a peony" because she looks like my daughter! We love all Grace's books.

Cheers!

Our children love Ling and Ting, Not Exactly the Same. They are often mistaken for twins so this book resonates with them. We have not yet read Where the Mountain Meets the Moon but will definately do so soon!

Thanks so much for your blog and store at ChinaSprout
