Dear Jacqueline Harvey,

I was just wondering if I could enter the May 2017 Newsletter competition more than once. I am definately voting for an Alice-Miranda book and I am sure that Clementine Rose and Alice-Miranda will make it into the top 50 Australia’s Favourite Kids’ Books.

Goodluck,
Geraldine

I don’t know what to vote on because all the Alice-Miranda books are so good! I’ve read them all three times and it will be very hard to pick a favourite. Can enter more than one book?

May 17, 2017 at 8:12 pm

    Jacqueline Harvey

     

    I think you can only vote for one book John, but you have to do it soon as the competition closes on Friday (tomorrow). Make sure you click the link to take you to the official competition entry – just putting it on here doesn’t work. Good luck!
