Join me every week for Win-It Wednesday, with 24-hour giveaways just for you!
Here’s another fun giveaway – this one just right for the middle schooler in your life!
If there’s one important thing Wilmer Dooley’s dad always says, it’s this: “Where are my car keys?”
Okay, maybe not that. He also says: “Observe!”
In The Contagious Colors of Mumpley Middle School, Wilmer knows that the greatest science comes from the keenest observations. So when he observes his classmates looking a little green…and orange…and chartreuse-fuchsia polka-dotted…he knows that it’s up to him to find the cause of this mysterious illness—and the cure!
But with his arch nemesis, Claudius Dill, hot on his heels; the eagle-eyed biology teacher, Mrs. Padgett, determined to thwart his plans; and a host of fluorescent classmates bouncing off the walls at increasingly dangerous speeds, can Wilmer prove he has what it takes to save the sixth grade from a colorful demise before it’s too late?
One (1) lucky Deal Seeking Mom reader will win a Contagious Colors Prize Pack, which includes:
- A copy of The Contagious Colors of Mumpley Middle School

I usually say “You know, I don’t know why that is either… let’s figure it out together”, because then they see that I’m still learning, and there’s nothing wrong with not knowing stuff automatically.
