I hope that you can use this money towards building a child's library at home or school with great books!
One suggestion is to buy a "series". Buying a series is often cheaper per book, and the popular ones are always a good read.
Here are some of ReadWithKids' suggestions, broken down by target age group:
Infant-Preschool -World of Eric Carle Series by Eric Carle
K-1 -Skippyjon Jones Series by Judy Schachner
2-3 -Percy Jackson and the Olympians Series by Rick Riordan
Congratulations to our first two winner of a $50 Amazon gift card!! We will be picking another winner next week so sign up ASAP for ReadWithKids.org and the winner could be you.
