Book It is the longest running kids literacy incentive program in the country. It is a program that I enjoyed participating in while I was a kid and one that I was excited to share with my own children.
To celebrate, author and illustrator (famous for his book “Diary of a Wimpy Kid”) wrote an original exclusive story to help Book It Celebrate. “Splat” is a book that kids will enjoy listening to and reading along while the author reads his engaging adventurous story. “Splat tells the story of a boy and his friend who try to escape the watchful eye of the safety patrol on the way home from school.” The story is very cute and the illustrations are vivid and full of cool pictures.
