Borders and Waldenbooks across the nation will host "Super Saturday Smackdown" at 2 pm June 27th. So head on over this weekend for trivia fun ("Jeopardy!" style). Some possible trivia categories are: Dr. Seuss, Encyclopedia Brown, Junie B. Jones, Nate the Great, Magic Tree House, Harry Potter, Fudge, Pendragon, and the Artemis Fowl books. There is a prize for the victor!
In select stores, there will also be an arts and crafts project available and storytime. During the event, kids will be provided with samples of drinks from the Seattle's Best Coffee cafe located in most Borders superstores.
Border's "Summer Reading Challenge" continues through August 31st. Kids age 12 and under who read 8 books and list the books they have read on the "Summer Reading Challenge" form ("coupon") found in Borders or Waldenbooks stores, or at www.borders.com/summerreading, can choose from select books after a parent signs the form. These books are all priced at only $4.99, which is 50 percent or more off their usual price.
If you want to find out if a Borders or Waldenbooks store in your area will be holding a "Super Saturday Smackdown" event, and what other upcoming events are being offered, use the Store Locator function on Borders.com.
Sounds like a fun way to generate excitement for summer reading!
