Donations for Teen Summer Reading Program

This just in from Terri Clark, YA librarian and novelist:
Hi everyone - The kids in my area have a little over 5 weeks until they are out for the summer and that means it's nearly time for the Teen Summer Reading Program. Many of you authors generously donated autographed books and promo items (bookmarks, magnets, shirts, etc.) for last year's Readathon. I had 30 teens participate in the 6 hour reading challenge and every kid was able to leave with a great prize. (Some authors even donated to me later in the year and those books were used for volunteer prizes and with the creative writing club.) I'd love to be able to do the same again this year. If you're interested in donating books and/or promo items please email me and I'll give you the library address. Thank you very much! I can't tell you how much this means to me and my teens. You can reach me at TerriClarkBooks@aol.com.
