    O-h-h-h!!! What a great contest! I’ve heard that all these books are great!!
    I know EXACTLY who I would send this to (after I’ve read the books, of course). I have a friend, Claire (and her daughter, Magan), who live in central New Hampshire. By the February 1st, Claire is totally ready for a trip to a warm beach somewhere.
    As for myself, I don’t need to ‘stay warm’ as I live in central Florida!
    Great contest, great idea/theme, great prize!! Thanks.
