March Give-away

I have another giveaway for you this month! Anyone (okay, anyone with a U.S. or Canadian street address) who links to a review of a diverse book will be entered into a drawing for one of five copies of this book:
A Lucky Child is the memoir of Thomas Buergenthal, born in Czechoslovakia to German-Jewish parents, who survived two years at Auschwitz, separated from his parents at age 10. Almost two years after he was freed, Buergenthal was able to find his mother. In 1951 he moved to America, and is now a respected international human rights judge.

In this video, Buergenthal explains why he considers himself lucky to have gotten into Auschwitz. Just listening to him talk about his experience learning to ride a bicycle as a child makes me want to sit down and start reading.

Tell you what, I'll give you one extra entry if you visit 5 of the reviews other people post and leave meaningful comments on each of them. (Whether the comments are "meaningful" will be entirely subjective but I'm fairly easy--I'm looking for something beyond "Nice review!"). Email me at the end of the month with links to your 5 comments.

Anyone can join the Diversity Rocks challenge at any time. If you're new here, I invite you to challenge yourself to read at least one book by an author of color between now and then end of March. I'll even give you an extra couple of weeks, since it's almost the middle of March. Post a review on your blog and link it here, or email it to me (worducopia-at-gmail-dot-com) before April 15 to enter the drawing.
