ANNUAL READING CHALLENGE

This year, participants are being asked to create their very own dinosaur gallery! This gallery can be found on the back of the reading challenge sheet to help you track your progress. Each challenge fossil is assigned a specific number, and these numbers combine to create a single skeleton in your gallery (for those who play, this is similar to Nintendo's Animal Crossing™ but with book-reading instead of a shovel). Complete challenges in any order, but six fully completed skeletons are required for you to claim a prize in December! Those who complete all thirteen skeletons will be entered into a raffle for an even bigger prize (to be determined). Keep track by writing the title of the book that satisfies the fossil challenge's requirement on the Dinosoaurs reading log. We encourage readers to find a different book for each fossil, and we will be more than happy to help you find these titles. Adults and teens will be doing the same challenge (but reading from different collections), and Children will have their very own gallery with different challenge fossils to unlock! Only one prize and raffle entry per patron. Get your form from the library, and get started today!
