I dropped my name in the Library's Summer Reading Contest drop box last week and never gave it another thought! This morning, I received a call from the Library that my name had been drawn and I could come pick up my prize. I have no idea what I won, but Whooo! Hooo! I won!! :) No matter how big or small the prize may be, it's always fun to win something!
I also entered my girls in the Summer Reading program for children and every time we read 10 books together they both get to pick a prize. It's usually some little trinket that breaks before they leave the library, but they get excited just to win something. Which in turn, makes reading that much more exciting!
So, Readers are Winners, in more ways than one!! Happy Reading!
p.s. I'll let you know what I won! ;)
I completely agree! My love for reading didn't really blossom until I was in the 3rd grade and lived with my grandparents in Pennsylvania because my parents were stationed in Korea (dad was in army) and they didn't want me to miss school. Anyway, I would walk to the library every Saturday with my grandfather and we would pick up several books each. I'd read while sitting on their porch eating a dill pickle. ;) My kids love reading too. Congratulations on winning. I wonder what you won! =)
