Students, families, faculty, staff, and all USN community members are invited to participate in the 2021 Reading Challenge. This year’s Reading Challenge has five categories:
1. A book that was made into (or based on) a movie or TV show (recommendations here)
2. A book with an animal on the cover (recommendations here)
3. A book about food or one with recipes (recommendations here)
4. A book with a number in the title (recommendations here)
5. A buddy read: any book that you and a friend or family member read together (free choice!)
Read at least one book in each category by the end of April and turn in your tracking sheet to the library for a chance to win a prize! Any kind of book counts for the challenge: picture books, audiobooks, graphic novels, poetry, cookbooks, and any other type of book you can imagine.
