Has your child read a great book lately?  Why not encourage your child to write a short review (with your help) about one of his or her favorite books using MOST’s Student Book Review Form. If the child is under 13 years old, be sure to include the Parental Consent Form giving MOST permission to publish the review.

If we include the review in a future issue of our SUPERTWINS magazine, your child could win a $15 gift certificate to a bookstore of his or her choice including: Borders, Barnes & Noble, or our favorite AMAZON!

A percentage of each book music, or video purchased through the MOST - Amazon link is donated to MOST. Learn more >>
