Get Caught Reading!
Beloved author Mercer Mayer and Little Critter are participating for
the first time this year in the Association of American Publisher’s (AAP) national
“Get Caught Reading” celebrity poster campaign.
Created to inspire a love of reading in people
of all ages, Mercer Mayer appears in a poster together with Little Critter as
they are “caught reading” an original copy of the book, Little Critter’s
The Trip, celebrating the
print edition’s transition into Silver Dolphin Books award-winning app, The Trip – Little Critter Reading Adventure.
Posters are made available to teachers and parents for use in
classrooms, libraries and other locations throughout the country. All posters are free, but the AAP asks that you pay $5.00
per set for shipping & handling, whether you order one poster or 12. A
set is defined as any number of posters that you order between one and 12!
Posters can be ordered here!
Mercer Mayer had a few thoughts to share: “I am so pleased to be
invited to participate in the AAP’s ‘Get Caught Reading’ campaign and to help
bring awareness to this outstanding initiative and its mission. I also want to
celebrate how today’s technology is providing even more options to engage
children in the joy of learning to read, and acknowledge the wonderful job that
Silver Dolphin Books and app developer John Sansevere have done in creating an extraordinary and multi-dimensional digital
experience of my original book, Little Critter’s The Trip.”
