School's (Almost) Out for Summer:
Summer Kids Reading Giveaway

by Carrie Boyko, CEB

It's time to start your plan. If you have children who enjoy reading, and love dogs, this is your chance to score some Summer reading material. Your kids definitely need to keep reading throughout the summer to maintain their level and build their enjoyment of reading for pleasure.

Today's giveaway intro includes dog stories that are written for kids reading at about the 2nd grade level. The titles are Shelter Dog Blues, Doggy Day Care, and The Puppy Place. There will be a continuing stream of kids' dog stories given out throughout the summer, so put the word out to your friends with children. I have a variety of levels and types of books available. Watch for more to come.

To Enter: Each of you must enter once by comment. You may all enter daily by Tweet. I'll check both and draw from all at Random.org. Leave your comment below, telling me how you found this giveaway and who will get the books if you win. Your input will help me in planning future giveaways.

Here's a sample Tweet to help you out:

#Kids books about dogs are being given away @AllThingsDog.

Three winners will each win 3 copies. Entries may continue through Thursday, May 10. Winners will be announced on Friday, May 11. Thank you and good luck!
