Hi friends, welcome to my day on Songs of the Season!
I’d like share a video I made especially for you.
The video includes me butchering singing the Twelve Days of Christmas
but I’ve turned it into The Twelve Books of Christmas!
WARNING: very bad singing. dogs will howl, babies will cry, your ears will burn,
but whatever, right?
ENJOY!
Welcome to Unconventional Librarian Day. I think I like the sound of that! If you’re stopping by from Book Brunch, THANK YOU! If you’re not, WELCOME! Today on my stop on the tour I’m sharing some fun and ridiculously cute stuff.
Not sure what Bookie Brunch is? Check it out here. See anything familiar? YES, it’s Random Magic!
Remember all the fun we had on the Pinterest Tour? Catch what we did here.
If you’re like me, you don’t like to be scared but you like having fun and eating candy. So, because I’m a scaredy cat, I like to celebrate Halloween in an unconventional way. I read only CUTE kids books!
So…my treat today is a collection of CUTE Halloweenie type treats!
Inside this treat is a cute Halloween book about a square pumpkin, tattoos, greeting cards and cute lil erasers. All kinds of fun things to put in someone’s Halloween treat bag. Or to keep!
Here’s how to enter: leave a comment below telling me about your favorite Halloween candy. You can enter as many times as you’d like; the more you comment, the better your chances to win! Contest runs October 25 at midnight until October 28th midnight. I’ll contact the winner via Random (Magic) on Monday October 29th so that I can send your prize in time for Halloween!
Remember, leave your comment below and Happy Halloween!
And so…we’ve reached le fin, the end.
We’ve had some aventures (adventures); fought pirate (pirates); and found Queen Alice. We speak a lot of French.
Alice and Henry return to the present.
Strange and confusing things happen but most importantly…
a happy ending.
Wanna see what REALLY happened?

Cheers! pip pip and toodle and all that kind of Britishy stuff that they might say!
You may have heard that the book Random Magic, by Sasha Soren, is touring all over the place.
If you heard that, you’d be right.
Sasha has SMARTLY GRACIOUSLY included me in on the proceedings,
mostly, to stop listening to me cry and whine.
But either way, I’m at the PARTY!
As you know, An Unconventional Librarian loves books about fun things.
Random Magic is proving to be so. much. fun!
What’s so fun about this tour is that
I get to host the pinning on PINTEREST!
What? you don’t follow me on Pinterest?
Get over there right now and do it: iyampam
or simply click the link for the Random Magicness.
Go ahead, I’ll wait.
There.
You’re all hooked up to the Random Magicness
the Random Magicity
the Random Magicality
the Random Magiceuse if you’re French, prolly.
see? I’m on the cover of the book
and I’m over at Pinterest pinning things that
remind us of the Random Magic book (themes, spaces, characters, etc).
It’s kind of online book club meets Pinterest.
Come check it out and follow along.
The rave party runs July 15 through Sept 15,
so there’s lots of time join the festivities!
This first week, let’s visit Chapters 1-5 and pin items that are reminiscent of those chapters.
Let’s go!
Don’t be mad cuz I’m late to this party; hover on over to the websites and start playing!
In honor of the Splash into Summer event hosted by A Backwards Story & Literally Jen…
I have invited Sasha Soren, the author of Random Magic, to visit Colorimetry. Â Every weekend she hosts a seriously delightful thingame called Book Nooks, where bloggers gather to share the latest find in great places to read. Obviously we have a lot in common instantly. I love to read in lots of lovely places!!
Later in July there is an amazing & zippy Tour highlighting Random Magic. I wanted to give everyone a heads-up about this up-coming fun. There’s some wonderful bloggers participating and some fun stuff. Since Sasha is full of surprises, just like her book, she is bringing a unique prize for Colorimetry readers…
Random Magic
by Sasha Soren
Paperback, 397 pages
Published January 1st 2010 by Beach Books, LLC
Premise:
When absent-minded Professor Random misplaces the main character from Alice in Wonderland, young Henry Witherspoon must book-jump to fetch Alice before chaos theory kicks in and the world vanishes.Â
Along the way he meets Winnie Flapjack, a wit-cracking doodle witch with nothing to her name but a magic feather and a plan. Such as it is.Â
Henry and Winnie brave the Dark Queen, whatwolves, pirates, Struths, and fluttersmoths, Priscilla and Charybdis, obnoxiously cheerful vampires, Baron Samedi, a nine-dimensional cat, and one perpetually inebriated Muse to rescue Alice and save the world by tea time.
