Giveaway: In The Corner of My Eye

In The Corner of My Eye is a book about a special relationship between a grandfather and his granddaughter who tries to see life through his eyes

When you are very, very young or very, very old, you can see things out of the corner of your eye. In between, all you can see is all you can see. Unless you are very, very lucky. Then the corner of your eye stays awake forever. The story of an ageing man who has lost something. But what and where? His granddaughter, Sally, helps him find it. Subtle and touching, this is an emotional response to people trying their best to live in an imperfect world.

To celebrate the release of this beautiful new picture book by Colin Thompson, the wonderful people at Walker Books Australia have not one but three prize packs to give away! Each pack consists of a copy of the book plus a marvellous signed poster by Colin Thompson.

To enter, in 25 words or less simply tell us,  what is your favourite part of your house, and why.

Email your answer along with your name and postal address to dimity. The three responses we like best will each win a book prize and poster. Competition is open to anyone, worldwide, so long as they have an Australian postal address for delivery of the books. Please note, we cannot deliver to PO Boxes. Entries without a name and street address will be ineligible. Winners will be announced right here on our website on 21 October 2019.

Competition runs from 5 pm 12 October 2019 to 5 pm 19 October 2019. Adults can enter for those aged 17 and under. This is a game of skill, not chance. The judge’s decision is final and no correspondence will be entered into.
