The first ever Children Into Champions Tele-Contest started Dec 1 at 7:00pm. Now you have until 11:59pm on Monday, Dec 7 to listen to the contest recording and submit your entry in the comment section of this post!
The Tele-Contest is sponsored by Alex and Tyler, the main characters from The Dream Doers and the Summer of Secrets. In the story, these 12-year-olds are forced to battle bullies, face their fears and keep strange secrets the summer they learn how to do what they dream.
Now they want YOU to learn how to DO what YOU DREAM, so you’re about to hear from six champions who are living the life of their dreams today talk about who they were way back when they were 12 years old.

I really hope to read the book and accomplish my dreams. From doing the contest, I learned that my dream would be possible if I just followed a few tips. I\’m eight years old and working on my first novel. (post by Noah Frank)
