To celebrate, I’ve filmed myself reading from the book – watch the short clip below or on my YouTube channel! We’ll find out whether I’ve won on the 26th of April …

  1. congrats Robin! I hope you win! 🙂 🙂 – my favorite book you’ve written is arsenic for tea!-

  2. Hi Robin! I just realized I did NOT put why I would like to win the book on your’ other post! I feel so stupid, does that effect if I am chosen as one of the winners or not? The reason I would like to win: I would like to have a copy, because I gave my sister my other copy and it seems as I won’t be getting it back because she took it to school, and left it. Thank you Robin! So sorry I forgot!
