IMPORTANT CONTEST RULES

TO QUALIFY to participate in contests and games, the children MUST have read or have listened to PROTO's story. They must FIRST get interested in and read grandma geny's series starting with PROTO, the first book. By understanding the story, they will get the gist of this project. There is no need for them to try to send in their prose if they have not read grandma geny's work.

You will find this clearly stated in the introduction to her book..."Hello Young Readers".
