ABBA is 5 today. It's time to Party!
P is for the People -Those writers, illustrators, readers and teachers, reviewers, other bloggers and all who have taken part and made it so fascinating and wonderful fun to read.A is for Assortment- The amazing variety of subjects ABBA has covered over the years. Take any month and you will find blogs about research, life as a writer, book launches, notebooks, campaigns and almost anything else from giraffes to wolves, art and science, our childhoods and the future.
R is for 'Awfully Big Reviews' - offering a list of great books with well considered thoughts that will make you want to read them.
T is for a Treat - each day you can find something new and different on ABBA truly a treat to look forward to!
Y is for YES! and Many more YEARS! and YEA! for ABBA!
It's been an amazing five years - It's been entertaining with much laughter and fun, educational, full of discussion on books and reading (what could be better). It is an inspiration to share creative writing ideas and methods of working and to communicate with so many like minded individuals. Truly excellent.
I'd like to say a huge thank you to all the lovely bloggers and
readers and all those faithful friends who comment regularly, for helping
to make it such an fantastic experience as both an ABBA blogger and a reader.

Absolutely, anyone is welcome to enter the draw!!
In that case, count me in!
Many happy ABBA returns!
Me too, please.
Am I allowed to enter the draw or is Downunder too far away for a lion to travel?
Oh never mind I will suggest the bookshop orders a copy for their Young Writers' Group.
Thank you, Cat, it would be lovely to think the young writers club had a copy but it is aimed at anyone wanting to write for children, not particularly for 'young' writers, although I do think those who write for children are usually young at heart, regardless of actual age!
I will put you in the draw. I did say 'anyone' can enter so it only seems fair!!
I want to be in the draw and be first out of the hat.
My almost three year old granddaughter makes up better stories than I do, so I want to write her book for her.
Good luck, Jerry!
