In the dazzling dairy land of Wisconsin, where cheese curds reign supreme and the green and gold Packers' spirit permeates the air, a team of superkids gather. They are the Reading Raccoons, a band of intelligent, funny, and adventurous children who are as eager for a good book as they are for a sizzling bratwurst on game day. Every Reading Raccoon has a unique power. Super Sam can speed-read faster than a bullet, absorbing every word and detail in a blink of an eye. Imaginative Ingrid can bring any book's characters to life, making them dance and prance around the room. And then there’s Giggly Gus, whose laughter can shake a book's pages and turn the grumpiest of grown-ups into chuckling cheeseheads. In Wisconsin, where the winters are colder than a snowman’s toes and summers are as warm as freshly baked apple pie, these kids bunker down. No matter the weather, they huddle together in the cozy corners of many a library, their noses deep in books, their minds off on crazy adventures. The magic of their reading powers fills the room, swirling like a snow globe of words and laughter. Every Reading Raccoon knows that the greatest adventure lies within a book’s pages, where they can battle dragons, explore distant galaxies or solve mysterious mysteries. In Wisconsin, a place where cows are almost as popular as books, these superkids with their super reading powers are the real MVPs. So next time you see a group of kids with books in Wisconsin, don't be surprised. They might just be the Reading Raccoons, off on their next great adventure.
