Box Tops Book Giveaway

Cheerios and Box Tops For Education have teamed up to bring 100,000 books to children in need across the country.

Access to books is essential to reading development. However, did you know that over 80 percent of childcare centers serving low-income children lack age-appropriate books? And a recent study shows that the ratio of books per child in middle income neighborhoods is 13 to 1, while in low-income neighborhoods, the ratio is 1 age-appropriate book for every 300 children.

The Cheerios family of cereals, First Book and Jon Scieszka, author of the popular "Trucktown" series and other children´s books, have joined together to deliver 100,000 books to community-based programs serving children in need - and we´d love your help! All you have to do is go online with your child and test your combined knowledge of children´s books by answering trivia questions related to "Trucktown" and other great children´s books.

For every trivia question answered correctly, you can cast one vote for the state you would like to receive books. The five states receiving the most votes will get 20,000 books each, for a total of 100,000 books. Test your knowledge and start voting.

Would you like to help Cheerios and Box Tops? If so they will send one lucky Springfield Mommy Reader an assortment of books from Cheerios, a Cheerios cereal and a $25 gift card to be used at any Barnes and Nobles

This Giveaway will run until Sunday, December 6th at 8pm. The winner will be randomly selected by a computer generator and announced Monday morning.
