Prizes!

So, Scholastic has released information about the prizes with listings for each participating country. Looks like some good stuff is up for grabs! It looks as if the $10,ooo grand prize the publisher is offering only applies in the U.S. and Canada. It's $5,000 in New Zealand and Australia, £5,000 in the U.K. To be the Grand Prize winner, kids collect all 39 Clues and must remain in the top 39 point scorers in the online game.
All areas with the exception of Australia are offering Book Prizes as well. After reading each book, children add the included trading cards to their online collection to see if they won up to $500!
The site will host Missions for the kids to do too. Playing along with a Clue Mission gets you in the running for as much as $250.
Let's not forget the Episode Prizes, an episode is a book, a Clue Mission, trading cards and other activities on the web site with more chances for cash. In Australia, kids compete for gaming consoles for Episode Prizes.
