Sandra Boynton - Udderly amazing

Sandra Boynton - Udderly amazing
To say that Sandra Boynton is my favorite children's author is an understatement, (with deep props to Dr. Seuss). But truly, for the first few years of my son's life her chunky children's books were a constant. Her writing is fun, bouncy and the pictures. Oh, the pictures.

[don't miss a FABULOUS $400 giveaway after the jump! Seriously, it's a good one...]

So squeeze me, because she has just released a new book called Amazing Cows, an ode to all things bovine. I am going to savor all 96 colorful pages of cowtastic jokes, poems, stories, games and more. I mean my son is.

Extra cool for you NY area moms: She's making an exclusive appearance December 4th from 12-2 at Books of Wonder in New York City, including a musical review and book signing. The store is wrapping up the first ever NYC gallery exhibit of Boynton artwork on December 6, with signed limited edition prints available.

But those of us who can't click our heels three times and magically attend this awesome event can still win a signed original piece of her art courtesy of Cool Mom Picks.  -Betsy

Grab Sandra Boynton's new book Amazing Cows from Workman Publishing, or in person when you see her this weekend at Books of Wonder at 18 W 18 St in NY. From 2-4 there will be a signing and musical review - a fun FREE event fro the kids! You can even call
(800) 835-4315  to grab yourself one of those signed copies which makes a great holiday gift.

Congratulations to Dana G, lucky winner of the Sandra Boynton giclee print!
