Look over the books suggested by our librarians. Discuss with your 5th or 6th grader some books you feel they might enjoy and help them select 6 to read. We strongly encourage you to read and discuss the different books your child chooses with them to make this as valuable an experience as possible.
Students choose 6 books from 10 different genres, shown below. Each genre can only be used once. The challenge for students is to discover new interests and expand their reading skills while having fun. See our book suggestion list (inside) to get started or ask a Library staff member for more suggestions.
Genres to Choose From:
- Adventure
- Biography
- Classic
- Fantasy
- Historical Fiction
- Mystery
- Nonfiction
- Realistic Fiction
- Scary Stories
- Science Fiction
Start reading, and as they complete each book record the title on here using the Missions function. To complete this Challenge online, you will need to record the titles they have read on the Missions page. There is 1 Mission with 6 steps to complete it, one for each book. As they read 6 different genre books, visit the library to pick up their prizes along the way, which will end with a free book and certificate of completion after 6 different genre books are read. Additional prizes will unlock along the way.
