We believe in a few things here at CVL: hard work, the power of a well-timed literacy reference, and the idea that if you love what you do, you’ll never work a day in your life. But we also believe in a good challenge, especially when it comes with world-class prizes for kids.
The Summer Reading Challenge officially kicks off May 26th, and we’ve secured some children's prizes that are truly special. We’re talking Limited Special Edition books with sprayed edges, golden pages, and custom stickers of your favorite series. To win your copy:

That's it.
The sad part: We have a very limited stock of these beauties. Once they’re gone, they’re gone! If you’re curious about which special editions are available for ages 0–12, give us a shout online, on the phone, or in person.
Happy Reading!
