Students, parents, 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 is based on) a movie or TV show
2. A book with an animal on the cover
3. A book about food or one with recipes
4. A book with a number in the title
5. A buddy read — any book that you and a friend or family member read together
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 you can imagine.
Visit the library’s Reading Challenge page to learn more about how the challenge works, to download a tracking sheet, and to get ideas for books in each category.
