“God could not be everywhere and therefore he made mothers.”
- Proverb

To commemorate the special loved ones in our lives, JAVOedge has decided to do a special contest  for Mother’s Day. Cue the aww’s. Awwww.
For all of us, our mothers or grandmothers were the ones who fostered a love for reading and for Mother’s Day 2010, JAVOedge is having its first Mother’s Day Contest to celebrate those special people in our lives, whether its a sister/mother/grandmother/etc.
Since it’s all about the love for reading, we are having 2 prizes: 1 for Nook owners, 1 for Kindle owners.

JAVOedge Mother’s Day Contest:

How It Works:
Join JAVOedge’s Facebook Fan Page. On our JAVOedge Facebook Fan Page wall, submit a short story about Mother’s Day about how your mom/wife/sister etc. inspired your love of reading. Indicate if you own a Nook or a Kindle and which JAVOedge case you’d like, based on criteria below.

Contest Runs:

Thurdsay, April 15th at 9AM (EST) till Saturday, May 1st at Midnight (EST).
Prize
The prize is a JAVOedge Case for a Barnes & Nobles Nook or a JAVOedge Case for an Amazon Kindle of their choice (up to $50 retail value). Prize valid for US-based participants.

Winner
The JAVOedge fans will judge. The story that is submitted to our Facebook Fan Page that generates the most amount of  Facebook “Likes” wins. Comments are welcomed in addition to a fan’s comment post but the judging will be decided by the number of LIKES that a comment/story receives. See an example below.

Need some inspiration?

Here’s a short story from myself (haha, since I can’t participate in the contest)

“Hands down, my grandmother. She was the first person who really paid attention to me as a kid as my single-mom was busy at work and I would often be lonely at home. I still remember how happy I was when my grandmother took me in hand and we went on a field trip to the library…as a poor kid, I couldn’t believe I could peruse through all the books and check out as many books as I wanted on ANYTHING. I became a voracious reader. Thanks to my grandma, books became a wonderful release from my routine life and allowed me some fantastic imaginary experiences as a kid and now even as an adult.”

It feels like Spring Fever here at JAVOedge. The Gadgeteer tech blog has taken notice to our JAVOedge Poppy Sleeve Case for the Barnes & Nobles Nook, particularly in Sky Blue! Julie says, “If the chirping birds and blooming flowers have you feeling happy that Spring is here, your Barnes & Noble Nook eBook reader can join in on the fun with new JAVOedge sleeve cases.”

Check that screenshot out! GeekSugar says: “The Nook has already been dressed a hundred different ways since its release last year, but none have been as perfect for Spring as the JAVOedge Poppy Sleeve Case. Coming in three colors, the JAVOedge case screams to be taken outside and enjoyed in the Springtime weather with its vintage-y print.” We’re honored since GeekSugar is one of our favorite blogs catering to a female-friendly technology review blog. Check out the JAVOedge Poppy Sleeve Case for the Barnes & Nobles Nook in Sunny Yellow, Sky Blue, and Tangerine Red at Amazon.

Carry your Nook into Springtime with the Poppy Sleeve Case for the Barnes & Nobles Nook. Can’t you see yourself carrying this out to the park and reading your Nook out in the nice sun? The vintage floral print is fashionably in season and adds a nice burst of color to your on-the-go reading. The canvas is also soft to touch and the Sleeve Case is nice enough to carry alone and show off. If you’re the type who likes to protect your Nook whether inside your backpack or purse, the Poppy Sleeve Case is great for protective or stylish use.
It comes in 3 Colors as you can see below.
