Starting in February of 2013, we will begin our first ever
Adult Reading Challenge!
"Visit” as many countries as you can through the magic of reading!
We will provide you with a “passport” to keep track of your “trips”, and when
the challenge is complete your stamped passport is your entry for fabulous
prizes!
Here are the levels:
Visit 15 countries to be a TOURIST
Visit 25 countries to be an EXPLORER
Visit 50+ countries to be a GLOBETROTTER
We’ve set three levels so that YOU choose how much (or how little!) you want to
read. Each level will have its own prize drawing.
We’re also making it simple to get a country “visit” stamp in your passport.
Simply read a book from the Decatur Public Library collection that:
Is set/takes place in the specific country
~OR~
Is written by an author from the specific country
Sound like fun? We think so!
Stay tuned for more details as the time for the challenge gets closer.
We will have a list of the continents and current countries, suggested reading
lists,
Frequently Asked Questions, details on the prizes, and much, much, more
available as the start of the challenge draws near.
Only books read after the challenge officially begins will count towards your
“travels”, but you can definitely start planning your itinerary.
Check our website and Facebook page frequently for more information.
Start packing your bags!
