Giveaway #267 : Win 3 copies of Children of the Wild - closed - winners @maximka25 @annelie_rainbow @beachpebble



I recently posted my review of Giles Milton's historical kids' novel, Children of the Wild. Even as a grown up, I really enjoyed it and have now passed it on to 10-year-old Sophie to read.

The historical note at the end of the book sets the scene : "In 1585, Queen Elizabeth I sent a small group of English men and women to settle in North America, then an unknown land on the other side of the world. We know something of their adventures from letters, diaries and drawings that have survived. Children of the Wild is drawn from these sources."

The publishers have kindly offered 3 copies of Children of the Wild to give away to lucky Madhouse Family Reviews readers.

To be in with a chance of winning, just do the following :
