Yay for **dantheman**. šŸ™‚ Book Fairies, Iā€™m set to go out to the school tomorrow afternoon for the end of the year party and to give the kids their copy of ā€œOh, the Place You Will Goā€ as a final gift. I was short 4 books. Dantheman had mentioned recently he had an Amazon gift certificate and was looking for a good way to spend it. I told him I had a good cause if he was interestedā€¦he said he was. I told him about the literacy project I am involved in and he said he would send 2 books. I had planned on buying the remaining books myself. I got the box from Amazon on Saturday and not only did he send the 2 books but he sent **FOUR** books meaning I donā€™t have to go out and buy the final 2 and I have enough for all 25 kids in my class. So hurray for dantheman. Extremely grateful for your assistance with this project. And for all you Book Fairies who have askedā€¦YES I plan to do this again next school year. Iā€™ll send out an email/post a thread and see how much interest there is. If there is enough then Iā€™ll definitely do it again. Thanks again everybody for all that you have done this year. Iā€™m going to miss this classā€¦they are a great group of kids and I see good things in their future. ---

I always figured **dantheman** was a good guy, and this proves it! YAY! I look forward to being a book fairy again next year. I really enjoyed taking part, especially when _my Sarah_ won the essay contest! šŸ˜ƒ This little project of yours has given me all kinds of warm fuzzies! Thanks so much for including us! ---
