{Another} Little Critter Books Giveaway!

Almost a year ago, I had the opportunity to give away two Little Critter books by Mercer Mayer. I've always loved the Little Critter world that Mercer Mayer created. We had the books and old computer games while growing up, and I'll admit to quite a bit of nostalgia connected to the stories.

Happily, I get to host a Little Critter giveaway again this year! :)
We All Need Forgiveness is about learning to forgive others for the mistakes they make. Little Critter spills his mom's upside-down pineapple cake, and she forgives him, but Little Critter has a hard time forgiving others when they make mistakes. Instead, he is angry and mean to those around him. Until he makes a big mistake which costs everyone in his class a fun surprise. He learns that accidents happen and readily forgiving others makes life a lot more fun!

In Being Thankful, Little Critter wants a lot of stuff. Like everything he sets eyes on. (What parent hasn't experienced this?) Then he goes to the farm to visit his grandparents and gets a new perspective on the simple things in life and what it means to be thankful for what he already has.

The books are available in soft cover or as board books.

  5. Love the idea of these books and can't wait to find them for our 5 grandkids! (Or win them, of course, LOL.)

    Our son and his family live with us, including their 3yo son and 14mo daughter. We're working on manners--please, thank you (both of those he has down well), excuse me, I'm sorry.

    We raised our kids (ages 30 and almost-28) on Mercer Mayer books and continuing with the grandkids. Love MM books! :)
