Claudia Marie Felt: October 2014

THE GIVEAWAY HAS ENDED.

Two random winners have been chosen. The first place winner is Carole Amai. The second place winner is Jade O'Shea.

A great big thank you to everyone who participated!

Win a copy of Hansel & Gretel: A Fairy Tale with a Down Syndrome Twist and a needle-felted bunny character that was featured in the book. The book is a first of its kind, illustrated in wool through needle felting technique.

Not only is the illustration in this book one-of-a-kind, but also the plot of the story is far from ordinary. This adaptation of the classic Grimms’ tale includes the wicked witch and the poor siblings in search of food; but in this version Jewel Kats’ main character, Hansel, is a mischievous, yet courageous, five-year-old boy with Down syndrome.
