Power Up With Reading Raffle

Hello all,

Power Up With Reading 2025: Happy Children's Book Week! Launched in 1919, Children's Book Week is the longest-running national literacy initiative in the United States. This year's anchor is bestselling and award-winning author and illustrator, Dav Pilkey, best known for creating book series like Dog Man and Captain Underpants. The Dog Man series celebrates creativity and imagination and explores universally positive messages including the importance of doing good, empathy, and compassion. 

As part of this year's Power Up With Reading celebration, we want to see your comic creations. Imagine a new Dog Man story and create your very own comic about it! Whether you want to use characters from the Dog Man series, or make your own story in the Dog Man world, let your imagination loose! Once your comic is complete, make sure to hand it in to one of our volunteers during Children's Book Week in order to participate in the raffle. All participants will be entered for the chance to win 1 of 5 Dav Pilkey books.

All children up to age 18 can participate. You have until this Saturday, November 8, 2025 to hand in your submission!
