2) How about a fun book giveaway? This one’s actually written by a star.

In partnership with my friend Rachel at Last Mom, I am pleased to present this raffle for a free autographed copy of music superstar and Grammy Award winner Ricky Martin’s picture book, titled Santiago the Dreamer in the Land Among the Stars. 

The book is illustrated colorfully by Patricia Castelao.

Rachel, who writes a celebrity column for an online news site, met Ricky Martin earlier this fall, and was able to obtain the giveaway copy of Santiago the Dreamer in the Land Among the Stars.

Click here to view an online description of Ricky Martin’s creative book for children. Sale proceeds help to support the Ricky Martin Foundation.

It’s easy to enter the drawing for this great giveaway. Just follow the instructions in this Rafflecopter box. The drawing ends Thursday, December 12, 2013.
