About this Event

Battle of the Books is a fun and engaging program that encourages a love of reading and celebrates our most enthusiastic readers (ages 8-17). Teams will read from a list of selected books, participate in weekly book club and quiz practice, then face off in a friendly competition to see who can answer the most questions about the stories they’ve read!


Please note: Each team must consist of three to six members, and have a team name. A student may only be on one team.
