Vote to give 100,000 books to children!

Vote for your state to receive 20,000 books and enter to win a FREE Cheerios 100,000 Book Giveaway gift pack!

What is the Cheerios 100,000 Book Giveaway program?

The Cheerios family of cereals, First Book and Jon Scieszka, author of the popular “Trucktown” series and other children´s books, have joined together to deliver 100,000 books to community-based programs serving children in need.

How can I help?

All you have to do is go online with your child and test your combined knowledge of children´s books by answering trivia questions related to “Trucktown” and other great children´s books.

For every trivia question answered correctly, you can cast one vote for the state you would like to receive books. The five states receiving the most votes will get 20,000 books each, for a total of 100,000 books. Visit www.FirstBook.org/Scieszka to test your knowledge and start voting.

Your vote will help determine which 5 states will receive 20,000 books each!

Why is Cheerios giving away 100,000 books?

Access to books is essential to reading development. However, did you know that over 80 percent of childcare centers serving low-income children lack age-appropriate books? And a recent study shows that the ratio of books per child in middle income neighborhoods is 13 to 1, while in low-income neighborhoods, the ratio is 1 age-appropriate book for every 300 children.
