WA2013 cover thumb GIVEAWAY: The World Almanac and Book of Facts 2013

We are homeschoolers and we LOVE books!  Did I say LOVE, oh yes, even the smell of a good book is great!  I think some of the best books you can have in your library regardless if you homeschool or not are great resource books.  No library is complete without a good almanac so we were excited to receive The World Almanac And Book of Facts 2013 to review.  This book is in paperback form and has 1008 pages to it.  It covers almost any topic you can think of that happened this past year.  Elections,Sports, Olympic Game Results,the top 10 news topics and much more.  I love the colored pages in the middle that have beautiful photographs of the many stories that made headlines in 2012.  I am a map lover and it has a special section with some beautiful maps in it too!

Here is what some of the reviewer are saying from well known sources:

“The World Almanac® is the most useful reference book known to modern man.”—Los Angeles Times
“The most versatile single volume, and probably the biggest bargain on the shelf.”—Esquire
“For the most information in one source, The World Almanac® remains the champion.”—American Library Association
“My #1 reference work for facts.” —Will Shortz, The New York Times Crossword Editor

You can buy this wherever books are sold and/or  at Amazon or Barnes & Nobles or Indiebound

Giveaway:  I have one almanac to give away.  Open to US Residents (excluding Hawaii and Alaska) To enter join the rafflecopter below:
