So a couple of weeks ago, I did a book review on this book, English for Everyone from DK Publishing Everyday English. And it's a good book, but I don't need this book. One of you needs this book. So I thought, because I don't need it and one of you does, I should do a giveaway. A giveaway is where you can enter. You can give me a little bit of information and I will randomly pick one person from the list and

and hopefully that person is eligible and I will send them this book. So I am going to give away one copy of this book, English for Everyone, Everyday English from DK Publishing, and I'll give you the details about how that's going to work in just a moment. And yeah, I should give it away because I speak English already, so I don't need a book on how to learn English, but I

Almost every single one of you probably does. So what will I do? Well, first of all, after I pick the person, the person who will receive this book, I'll probably put a little note in the front here for them, from me to them personally. So it won't just be a book. It will be a personal message from Bob the Canadian. But there's going to be a few little details that are important in order for you to be eligible to win this book.

book. The first would be you have to live in a country where I'm allowed to send you this book. Now there's a lot of countries in the world and I can ship a book to almost any country in the world but there are some restrictions.

So I will randomly select someone from all of the entries. And then if I'm able to ship this book to their country, I will ship it to that person. But if I'm not allowed to because of international law or restrictions from your country about sending things from Canada, I won't be able to send it to you. And then I will randomly pick another person.

So yeah, I'll sign the book. I'll draw a name and I'll try to send it to a person who needs it. What else should I mention about this? There are no other restrictions. You don't have to buy anything. This is a free giveaway. The only thing you need to do is watch till the end of this video and I'll give you all of the instructions. You don't need to do anything special. So here's how it will work. In

In the description below, there is a link to a Google form. In order to enter to win this one single book, I'm only giving away one, you need to have a valid email account or Gmail account or YouTube account, and you need to fill in that form. Along with that, I'm going to ask you for your name on YouTube, because sometimes the email address and the name are slightly different. And I'm going to ask you what country you live in,

I don't need your address. I just need to know what country you live in. And then I'll use that information. I'll go to the post office and I'll say, hey, I want to send this book to this country. And then I'll see if I'm allowed to. But I'm getting ahead of myself. Once I get a list of all of the entries, I will randomly pick a name and then I'll make sure I can ship to that country. And then if I can, I will send you the book.

A few other things that you need to know. I will probably do the draw on March 14th. So today is like February. Let me check the date here. February 20...

So I will probably do the draw on March 14th. It might be March 15th, but I'm going to allow for a little over two weeks for people to enter. So I think that's all the details. Let me say them all again. If you would like to win this exact book in this giveaway,

I will send it to you. I will, if you live in a country that I'm allowed to ship to, and if your name is chosen randomly, I will write a short message, handwritten message, in the front of this book to you, and I will send it to you. Obviously,

If I do randomly select your name and you are eligible, I will email you and ask for an address that I can send this book to. Either your home address or the place where you work. Some place where I can send this book so that you can have it.

And I think that's everything. I think that's all the details. Again, all of the information is below. All of the rules and regulations of doing a giveaway are below. Again, it is one single copy of this book, this actual book right here in my hands.

I will send that to whoever wins on March 14th or March 15th. And I will also announce the winner on that day. I will not use your email address publicly. I will announce by your first name and your YouTube username. And then I will get in contact with you. Last thing.

you should add the email address video at bobthecanadian.com to your allowed list in your email software because that's the email address I will be sending the...

that I'll be using to send the announcement to the winner. So make sure that you check your spam on the day of the announcement and also check your spam folder, but also if you allow that email address through. I'm not gonna spam you, by the way. I'm not collecting your email addresses for any other purpose other than to choose one person to win this book. I think that's all the details. If I forgot anything, I'll put it all in the description below.

if you want to win this book look for the form linked below read all the rules and regulations if i'm if i choose your name randomly on march 14th or 15th and if i'm allowed to ship things to your country um i will do that so and then last thing

Um, there is a slight possibility that if I shipped to your country, you will have to pay a small fee called duty, or there might be a tariff. The value of this book is only about 20 us dollars. So it wouldn't be a lot of money, but there always is that possibility. And you should be aware of that. I would assume if I shipped this to your country and there was duty or tariffs on it, it wouldn't be more than five or six us dollars. Um,

which is a pretty good deal for this book. So, giving away English for Everyone Everyday English. It also comes with the online audio, is included with the book. I will personalize it by putting a small handwritten message in the front, and I look forward to seeing all of the entries. So, have a good day, and I wish you all the luck in this giveaway. Bye.
