UPDATE: We’re on to Round 2 – The Elite Eight! Check it out here: http://www.readeo.com/blog/?p=516

It’s March Madness at Readeo! But we’re not talking about free throws and buzzer beaters here, we’re talking about favorite picture book characters battling it out for the top spot in young readers’ hearts and minds!

If you’ve heard about School Library Journal’s Battle of the Books, you know that they’ve been stricken with March Madness, too. While their focus is on fiction and nonfiction for older readers, we wanted to find the top children’s book character of all time. So check out the line-up and give us your votes!
