About this event
Starting Saturday, May 28th, pick up a “Cheesy Summer Reading Challenge” booklet from Dog-Eared Books, with the purchase of an age-appropriate book, and receive your first stamp. Use the calendar on the interior of the booklet to track your reading minutes each day, and if you reach your goal by September 5th, you can visit Great Plains Sauce & Dough for a free small 1-topping pizza.
Take your completed booklet to Dog-Eared Books for your second stamp and a free Pizza Dog sticker. The completed booklet can then be presented at Great Plains Sauce & Dough for a free small 1-topping pizza, no purchase necessary.
