A book for you to enjoy

We here at the Gazette appreciate our dear readership,
although we fear it is quite small,
we are grateful to you one and all.
 And  so, to say a hearty thank you, we would like to give you the opportunity to become the owner of a most delightful book.  "Hopalong Jack and the Blue Bunnies",written and Illustrated by our very own editor of the Gazette, was published in 2005 and was Jeri's first book. This is the book which gave birth, in fact, to our beloved Hopalong Hollow. 

Much of the artwork seen on these pages , does indeed come straight from aforementioned book. An so, without further rambling, here are the rules, very simply: comment here, say anything you wish, just your name if that is all you want to leave in print.
  You needn't be a follower, being a reader is fine too♠. Wherever you live in the wide. wide world, if your name is chosen, we will send you a signed and messaged book.
On October 19th, our very own Fionna Goosefeathers II will pick a name out of her  little bonnet.
And a lucky someone will get a wonderful book. And remember, Beautiful Storybooks are NOT just for kids!

  5. Jeri I must say that Fionna Goosefeathers II is looking really smart in her lovely little bonnet. I love your illustrations as they remind me so much of the stories I read as a child and later to my own children of the Beatrix Potter ones. Its a real priviledge to also see what's going on in Hopalong Hollow in reality aswell.
