Product Review and Giveaway: Ecobrain


Image source: ecobrain.com

By now you may have figured out that I love books. I am also concerned about our environment which is the main reason I signed up to be part of Green & Clean Mom's Mommy Go Green Blog Tour. As part of this blog tour I jumped at the opportunity to review Ecobrain.

Ecobrain is a website that offers E-books and Mp3s about the environment and other environment friendly topics. You know that you are helping the environment with every book you read in this format because you probably just saved a tree. Ecobrain also offers a free download for you to check out their content. This selection changes every two weeks so you continually get free content. Also, now through November 11th, you can get $5 credit when you sign up for a free account. More details here.

This is what I loved about Ecobrain: their sustainable concept of providing books that are environmentally friendly. I also like that they provide a free book on a continuous basis. Finally, I think Ecobrain is a great educational source for homeschoolers. I noticed the free E-book contained lessons for children to complete based on the content on the book.

I would love for you to be able to get another free E-book. You can win the free Ebook: Radical Simplicity: Small Footprints on a Finite Earth By Jim Merkel. You can read a review for this book here. All you need to do is enter your name and email address in the form below to enter for a chance to win. You must be 18 years or older and have a U.S. mailing address.

The giveaway ends on Saturday November 8th @10:00 AM CST. At that time I'll select the winner using Random.org . I will contact the winner via email and provide 48 hours to contact me with their address. If I don't hear back after that time period the prize will be forfeited and I will pick another winner randomly again.


Good luck!

Product Review and Giveaway: Oprah's Big Book of Happiness

Oprah's Big Book of Happiness encompasses the best of Oprah magazine. That is to say more than 100 powerful and compelling articles from contributors such as Dr. Phil, Suze Orman, Barack Obama and Richard Branson among others. The content of the book is divided in three main sections:
Your Mind/Your Body: Here topics such as diet, exercise, aging, confidence and faith are touched on.
Dating, Mating, Relating: Includes articles on couples, sex and family.
Dreaming Big: Includes articles on working, making friends with your money and encourages you to take action.

The first thing that I love about this book is its content. You will fall in love with the stories in this book. I am not a subscriber to O magazine; this was my first foray into the content of that magazine and I am utterly impressed. The stories in this book will move you: they are touching and inspiring. The informational articles are empowering: they will arm you with tools to make better decisions.
I love that the book is practical. I don't have to thumb through old magazines trying to find the articles that I loved reading. Instead I can head to this book and find those articles in one place.
Those who love Oprah will love this book. Those who are not familiar with Oprah will also love this book. I am not a big Oprah follower. I have probably watched her show a handful of times and have perhaps read her magazine once. But I have fallen in love with this book. This is a book I would highly recommend to anyone who would like to learn tools for self-improvement and the achievement of happiness. I don't normally give grades to the products I review but this book gets an A+ from me.

I am very happy to be able to share the wisdom in this book with someone. I have a copy of this book to giveaway. All you need to do is enter your name and email address in the form below to enter for a chance to win. You must be 18 years or older and have a U.S. mailing address.

The giveaway ends on Friday November 7nd @10:00 AM CST. At that time I'll select the winner using Random.org . I will contact the winner via email and provide 48 hours to contact me with their address. If I don't hear back after that time period the prize will be forfeited and I will pick another winner randomly again.

This giveaway is now closed.
