Tim Tebow to quarterback Pizza Hut's reading campaign

December 21, 2011

Pizza Hut has landed another big spokesperson for its Book It! Rading program. Denver Broncos quarterback Tim Tebow will host the fifth annual storytime event on Feb. 15. He will read his favorite childhood book, "Green Eggs and Ham" by Dr. Seuss, to children around the world via the Web.

As a "thank you" for Tebow's participation, Book It! will make a donation to the Tim Tebow Foundation, which is dedicated to bringing faith, hope and love to those in need.

Pizza Hut and Book It! established the America's Biggest Storytime event in 2007 to encourage reading.

Last year's event drew more than 500,000 viewers and featured pop star Justin Bieber reading Dr. Seuss' "The Cat in the Hat."

The link to view Tebow's reading event will be released in January. More information about the Book It! Program can be found at bookitprogram.com.
