As I said yesterday before Blogland was rudely interrupted by technology gremlins, July 22nd marks 6 months for The Ponder Room.
I guess it’s pretty obvious that I’m kind of getting the hang of this talking thing. Walking however is still proving a little tricky at times in Blogland, as I navigate my way through various technological obstacles that get thrown in my direction. Anyway I thought I should do something to mark the occasion.
I’ve gone against the idea of sugar laden soft drinks, or hyperactivity inducing red frogs (they’re lollies for those who don’t know and think there’s another creepy crawl to add to the list of weird animals to avoid when in Australia).
Instead I’m offering a copy of Shaun Tans novel The Lost Thing – the book behind the Oscar winning movie. It’s a beautiful book with plenty of detail to keep children and adults amused.
I decided on that as the prize as it seemed to be a popular post, beside it would be much easier to post than something from Mr Pricaso (another popular post).
I’ll be doing the time honoured pulling a name out of the hat trick at 9pm on July 22nd (Perth WA time).
To enter you just have to be a follower of The Ponder Room, or to have made a comment on the blog (if you don’t want to be a follower) by 9pm July 22nd.
So if you aren’t a follower yet you still time, and yes it’s open to anywhere in the world as the book will be easy to post.
If you are already a follower and or have posted a comment you are already in the draw.
Good luck.

I read about Mr Pricaso earlier today and I must say it was an eye opener!
Hmm. So after six months, you are giving away a real live physical book. After six years, I gave away a virtual piece of cake. We can easily see who the more generous blogger is here! Congratulations on the half birthday though, I’m very proud since I was there at the start! (Also please don’t count me in the competition. Redraw it if I win! Not only am I too stingy to have proper giveaways, I also already own this delightfully gorgeous book.)
@BIQ yeah the mind boggled for quite a while
@Amanda hehe you have me pondering about a virtual cake now. And you weren’t just there at the start you moved me from idea to reality. Okay – it is a great book
Great idea.
