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

use your imagination and whatever you are working on doesn’t always have to be “perfect” for it to be wonderful.

We are always taking walks outside exploring. Then we head to the library to look for books about animals or insects that we found.

I encourage my three children to think for themselves, ask questions, give every task their best whether it’s play or work, and to thank God for their blessings every day.
