You Can “Have the Power!”

He-Man and the Masters of the Universe is a powerhouse franchise that is still going strong after 27 years! Now Mattel introduces the Masters of the Universe Classics series of action figures, an updated blend of the vintage and modern character styles.

The inaugural figure is King Grayskull, released at San Diego Comic-Con 2008 and an instant hit – avid collectors stood in line for hours to buy their exclusive figure! The Kids Need to Read Foundation is giving you a chance to bid on this highly sought-after, sold-out item! In addition to the over 6″ tall figurine with his Power Sword, battle axe and shield, the carton itself folds out into a large Castle Grayskull playset with lights and sound!

So lower that “jaw” bridge and shout “By the power of Grayskull!” Then head over to http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=110292214785 to place your bid. Bidding opens at $60.00 and will continue until September 27, 2008.

We are grateful to Mattel for donating this SDCC Exclusive to The Kids Need to Read Foundation. Money raised from these auctions is used to purchase books for under-funded schools and libraries, as well as for organizations that provide books to children.

We are always looking for auction items! If you have something you would like to donate to The Kids Need to Read Foundation, e-mail Debbie Brown at debbie@kidsneedtoread.org .

Tis the Season

Once Upon a Time… It was a dark and stormy night… This is the tale that was told to me…: Throughout history, winter has been a season rich in the tradition of storytelling, serving as a captivating blend of entertainment and education for individuals of all ages. This enduring legacy is exemplified in Beowulf, one of the oldest recorded stories, where the narrative opens with a compelling command, “Listen! we have heard of the might of the kings,”. No matter the opening line, the timeless power and importance of story and literacy is in its ability to connect generations and communities through the ages.
