Win a signed copy of Riley and the Grumpy Wombat


My lovely and super talented friend Tania McCartney is releasing a new children's book titled Riley and the Grumpy Wombat. I'm taking part in her blog/book tour by giving away a signed copy of her new book. Here's a little about it:

Riley has discovered a wombat in his nanny’s garden. But why is this furry creature so grumpy? Join Riley and his friends from books one, two and three, as they zoom around the stunning sights of Melbourne in search of a wombat that simply needs a place to call home.

Featuring gorgeous black and white photos of Melbourne and surrounds, Riley and the Grumpy Wombat combines photos, illustrations, adorable characters, humour and an adventuresome storyline in a travelogue-style book that showcases Melbourne at its very best.

To be in the running to win a signed copy of Riley and the Grumpy Wombat, simply answer the following question: What makes you most grumpy?

  12. What makes me the most grumpy is a combination of lack of sleep and then my beautiful children squabbling over nothing and all through the day!

  13. Little boys who don't use the toilet properly are frustrating, and cleaning up their messes makes me grumpy. Big boys who don't use the toilet properly make me not just grumpy, but furious! They should know better!

  23. What makes me grumpy is when I haven't organised my day well and don't have enough time to snuggle up and read a book or two or three....to my child. It's the best time of the day for both of us, but being a mum of three, there are some days when I miss the one on one time I try to do with my kids - which is when I read them a book of their choice for as long as they want me to :)
