My California & the Peanut Gallery
Congratulations to reader Marc Loopesko, the winner of our first-ever giveaway here at Seal Beach Daily. We’ll be sending Marc a signed copy of My California: Journeys by Great Writers, the best-selling travel anthology that includes a stopover here in “The Last Little Beach Town.”
Didn’t win? No worries. We’ve got another Book Lotto coming right up, and our next giveaway will be of special interest to PONY leaguers and other baseball fans.
Westminster writer Daniel S. Green has graciously shared a signed copy of The Perfect Pitch: The Biography of Roger Owens, the Famous Peanut Man at Dodger Stadium.
Daniel’s book is a biography of his uncle, a beloved fixture at Dodger Stadium for fifty years. As readingroupguides.com noted, “It covers the amazing life of the Peanut Man, the many miracles he and his family faced, and his rise from lowly soda vendor to premier peanut man, known for his trick peanut tossing and his career launching appearance as a guest of the Tonight Show with Johnny Carson.” Read an excerpt from the The Perfect Pitch here.
If you’d like to enter the SBD Book Lotto, please use our contact form to send us your name and e-mail address by this Friday, December 19. Put “PEANUT MAN” in the subject line. We’ll select a winner at random.
