Giveaway #312 : Win a Hello Kitty & Friends book collection - closed - winner Diana Semionova


There were squeals of excitement from Juliette when this collection of books arrived at the Madhouse for us to review because she's a big Hello Kitty fan. We've been reading them together and they've really inspired her to practise her reading. They have large print and lots of cute illustrations to break up the text so they are ideal for beginner readers ready to branch out into proper reading books.


The collection, which currently offer six titles but will be added to over time, actually reminds me of the Famous Five because Hello Kitty and her friends all get together and go off on exciting adventures. If you collect the six books in the series and retrieve the six passwords in each of the book, you can also reveal a secret message from Hello Kitty, which Juliette was very excited about !


I have a collection of all 6 Hello Kitty books to give away to one lucky Madhouse Family Reviews reader. To be in with a chance of winning, enter via the Rafflecopter widget below.



UK only. Closing date : 21/8/13

T & C's : Entries close at midnight on the closing date. Winners will be selected with a random number generator and announced on facebook, twitter and in the giveaway post subject line. Please note, you will be contacted by email and/or twitter and if I haven't heard from you after a week, I'll have to pick another winner. Prizes will be sent out by the companies or their PR directly to winners.

    I'm really going to show my age now but I always thought I'd be an astrounaut. I vaguely remember the Apollo Moon landings & having four brothers to play with we use to land on the Moon ( a disued yard near our home with lots of big rocks & gravel in it) I can see us now with out made up spacesuits & helmets.

    As a child I hoped that I would get the opportunity to see new places. Travel and see places of interest when I was older/ adult. I did get some opportunities, my school friend moved to London. So on leaving school, my first adventure was to London to visit her and her family. I also got the opportunity to explore some of London:- sightseeing.
