Jan. 2 – What a WONDER-ful way to start off the New Year!

The winner of the 16th Kids Need to Read Charity Auction is jponah, who will soon be revisiting Wonderland with her copy of Frank Beddor’s newest novel, Seeing Redd, signed by the author. The book and all the accompanying goodies will surely have jponah grinning wider than the Cheshire Cat!

Jopnah’s winning bid of $ 60.00 will assist Kids Need to Read in buying books for schools and libraries in need. Thanks to all of our auction participants, as well as Frank Beddor, for making it possible!

Today marks the start of something really big — a SECOND weekly auction sponsored by Kids Need to Read. It’s Monkey Madness! Every Wednesday, one of our exclusive, original “space monkeys” will be put up for bid. Not only are the monkeys cute and clever creations, but each one is signed by a cast member of the best Sci-Fi adventures ever, Firefly and Serenity! Check the “Monkey Madness” post in this blog for all the details!

Be sure to watch for auction announcements every Sunday and Wednesday. Bid on an awesome prize and support a good cause at the same time – the literacy project founded by friends PJ Haarsma and Nathan FillionKids Need to Read.
