To say we are excited about the official launch of the newest book from Audrey Press, A Year in the Secret Garden by Valarie Budayr and Marilyn Scott-Waters, is an understatement!
Just this week our delight was compounded when Valarie announced that the physical version of the book had arrived, just in time for the upcoming launch and blog tour.
This book was a labor of love between two creative people (Valarie and Marilyn) who not only wanted to bring a classic children\’s tale to life, but encourage families to step away from the computer and into the garden, craft room and kitchen.
A Year in the Secret Garden is an opportunity to introduce a new generation of families to the magic that is The Secret Garden. With over 120 pages, 150 original color illustrations and 48 activities, your family and friends will be crafting, cooking, enjoying, learning and playing together with monthly activities inspired by the characters and events of the original children’s classic. Every month readers will get to meet another Secret Garden character, as well as experiencing original crafts and activities based on the book.
In honor of this exciting new release, there will be a special blog tour that will run from November 1 to 30, 2014. We encourage our readers to stop by and experience the magic of A Year in The Secret Garden through book reviews, author interviews, guest posts and excerpts from this activity-packed book. The blog tour will include a shared giveaway for a $100 Amazon gift card or PayPal cash prize, open worldwide.
