THIS CONTEST HAS NOW ENDED. (But keep celebrating Moose Day anyway!)
It’s MOOSE DAY! It’s MOOSE DAY!
Shockingly, this is not an official, national holiday (though it should be!), so you might be wondering what Moose Day — today — is.
Simple.
Today is the book birthday of DUCK, DUCK, MOOSE! Hooray!!!
It is a day of joy! Of celebration! It is a day for all ducks and all mooses to put aside their differences and celebrate the true meaning of friendship! (The true meaning of friendship, coincidentally, is the theme of the whole book.)
A lot of people are already celebrating DUCK, DUCK, MOOSE.
It has been selected for the CBC’s Hot Off The Press.
Kirkus says, “Two ducks plus one moose equals mayhem, mischief and true friendship.” YAY!
Publishers Weekly says, “Moose’s pratfalls provide short-term entertainment and an opportunity for dramatic read-aloud performances.” Wow!
School Library Journal says, “Good fun that gives a whole new meaning to the word ‘duck.'” Woo-hoo!
Booklist says, “Though this silly story has a lot of well-earned laughs, the sweet ending is a touching reminder that clumsiness is easily forgivable.” HOORAY!
The lovely Robin Newman is celebrating Moose Day here. The fabulous Matthew Winner’s Moose Day Festivities are here. The most creative Creative Bookings is celebrating here. The adorable Darlene Beck Jacobson has her Moose Day party here.
The internet is just a-twitter with Moose Day Festivities!
Which brings us to the GIVEAWAY.
