Cheerios Spoonfuls of Stories GIVEAWAY!


I have another giveaway for you, courtesy of My Blog Spark! Cheerios, through their Spoonfuls of Stories program, has given away over 35 million books in boxes of their cereal over the past seven years. They have also donated almost $3 million to First Book, a charity that distributes books to low income children.

In addition to getting books into the hands of children, Cheerios has been helping aspiring children's book authors through their New Author Contest, which is now in it's third year. The first year's winner was Shellie Braeuner, a nanny from Nashville. Her story called, The Great Dog Wash is set to be published in hardback form this summer, and will be available in 1.5 million boxes of Cheerios in the Spoonfuls of Stories version.

If you are an aspiring children's book author, find more information on the contest at this website: www.spoonfulsofstoriescontest.com . You just might be this years winner.

Do you want a copy of the Spoonfuls of Stories version of The Great Dog Wash as well as copies of 3 other Spoonfuls of Stories books? Because of their small size, they are great for throwing in your purse for trips to the doctor's office or keeping in your car's center console for entertaining kids in the car. If you want to win, you can enter right here on my blog!

I have one set of books to giveaway.

I love "I can Lick 100 Tigers Today". I think it's one of Dr. Suess' lesser known titles, but I loved it! "You down there, with the curly hair, will you please step out of line." :)
