Today we are thrilled to announce the winner of our first “Around the World in 100 Bookshelves” book draw. The lucky child is 5 year-old Shashank, from Bangalore, India. Congratulations, Shashank! PaperTigers will be sending five multicultural picture books for you to add to your bookshelf! Please let us know what you (and your friend Mickey Mouse) think of the stories, when you’ve had a chance to read them!

So far, we have heard from The Philippines, Canada, the UK, US, Sweden and India. We want to see bookshelves from all corners, though, and to hear about the books that inhabit them, so please keep those photos coming! Your young bibliophile could be the winner of our next book draw, which will happen on Jul 15.

To see all bookshelf photos submitted to date, and to catch a glimpse of a world made smaller through books and reading, click on the “Around the World in 100 Bookshelves” logo, on the sidebar.
