Did you bring a flashlight? A sleeping bag? Hope so, because this isn’t just any old launch party. It’s a slumber party: invite your friends, your kiddos, your pets. You’re staying all night long. Actually, you might even be staying through July 5th, 2009. Read on to find out why…

June 11, 2009 - July 8, 2009

1) Sign the guestbook and let Cynthea know you’re ready to party.

2) See the new movie. A little orientation always helps. Plus, if you know me personally, you might be starring in it!

3) Take the Dare: Show You Care. We’ve got AMAZING prizes up for grabs in support of a great cause. Over sixty celebrated children’s and teen book industry professionals are our special guests, and they’ve got something special in store for you!

4) Hope you haven’t missed the auction.

5) Are you passed out yet? Enter the contest.

6) Feeling intellectual? Discuss the book.

7) Can’t get enough? Play the game.

Starved? Eat the food.

9) Party-pooped? Don’t you DARE leave without claiming your prizes. Everyone goes home with something!

Have fun wandering around the dark woods of Cynthea’s website.  If you get lost, make sure you follow the glowsticks to find your way back. Enjoy, and thanks for coming to the party.
