COUNTDOWN TO CJJ3!! FREE SIGNED BOOKS!! OVERUSE OF EXCLAMATION POINTS!!!!

Hi All!

It’s less than a week before the third book in the Charlie Joe Jackson saga comes out!

Entitled CHARLIE JOE JACKSON’S GUIDE TO SUMMER VACATION, it’s the funny, heartwarming tale of Charlie Joe Jackson, unrepentant non-reader, as he goes to camp and tries to corrupt a lovely group of innocent, hard-working children.

I don’t want to give away the plot, but I will offer this one tidbit. (SPOILER ALERT!) In the book, Charlie Joe discovers a book that he actually doesn’t hate.

I know – OMG, right?

So enough about that. Who wants a free signed copy?

All you have to do to enter is comment on this post and answer this one question:

During what season does CHARLIE JOE JACKSON’S GUIDE TO SUMMER VACATION take place?

(I know, it’s not easy. Take all the time you need.)

Five lucky winners will be chosen at random on Friday, May 17.

Good luck!

-Tg

    After carefully reading and re-reading the book’s title, I have found the answer, secretly hidden within: summer 😉

    I first found out about your book while weeding (don’t worry, the book stays!) I immediately told my fellow children’s librarian co-workers that they must read and recommend (and order) all of your books! BTW- I loved your presentation on the Booklist webinar about middle grade series for reluctant readers.

    The teens in our library are eating up your books, like you eat a hot dog at the ballpark on a SUMMER’s day

    answer is in CAPS

    Summer! I one copy has a waiting list that is longer than there are days of school left. I’m starting on next year’s waiting list now.

    Summer! My kid is almost finished with the first CJJ book. She’s laughed out loud so much while reading it I think I might have to read it, too. She is going to tell her first/second grade teacher about your books so that maybe she can order some for her classroom. My kid is going to be so excited to learn that their are more books in the CJJ series. And an autographed copy of the new one would be treasured by her, I am sure.
