Details about the Borders Super Saturday Smackdown

This exciting event will take place on Saturday, June 27 at 2 p.m. Children ages 8 to 12 are eligible to take part in this game-show style competition. The questions will test how well kids know their favorite books and authors.

Kids interested in participating in or attending the Super Saturday Smackdown book trivia challenge should use the online Borders store locator to find the store location nearest home and contact it to find out if it is one of the locations taking part in this special event.

Learn about children's authors and illustrators

While in the store, children may want to shop for informational books about their favorite children's authors and illustrators, like Artist to Artist: 23 Major Illustrators Talk to Children About Their Art by Patricia Lee Gauch [Penguin Group, 2007].

To prepare for the trivia challenge, kids might want to use online trivia games to practice, such as the Kids Reads trivia games, particularly the ones that deal with Harry Potter trivia questions.
