Description

Winner receives 1 copy of Odd Velvet with a personal note and signature from the author. 


Velvet is a young girl who appears very odd to her classmates. She does strange things like bringing a milkweed pod to show and tell in place of a doll and only owning eight crayons. Through her creativity, however, her classmates begin to get to know her better and discover that unusual habits do not mean that there is anything wrong with Velvet and that different does not mean negatively odd.
