      The only way I think this could be better is if you post MY name as the winner! Other than that…… 🙂

      I can’t imagine what you could do to improve the site. I discovered TCBR about 4 years ago when I became our library’s full-time story lady and it is one of my go-to sites when I’m looking for book recommendations.

      I have been entering this contest for 10 days and it still says I have only 3 entries. I click the free daily entry button too. How is this possible? I also click the bring friends button. Still only 3 entries.

        The amount of entries refreshes each day. So it sounds as though you have been accumulating 3 entries each day that you enter. If you have been entering for 10 days, you would most likely have 30 entries by now.

      I’m new to the site but I like the Book Shop, the author highlight and the site seems user friendly which is a plus for me.

      I just found Children’s Book Review, and I am glad I did. I have two granddaughters who read books on Kindle, and I frequently send books to their Kindles. Many times, I am confused on what would be good for them age/grade/interest wise.

      Awesome review I like the fact you got straight to the point and that you put the Technical Details graph in there for people to look at. When I shop for anything that’s the first thing I got to because Im a busy mom sometimes I don’t have time to read long boring paragraphs. Thanks for the chance to play I would love to use this and share it with my teenage daughter
