Timber Ridge Picture Book Bracket
Each spring the staff and students participate in our annual tradition designed to promote the love of reading. We call it our Book Bracket. This tradition started as a grade level activity with 2nd grade and has grown and expanded to our entire school participating. We usually begin mid February and each round the kids listen to the books and get to vote on their favorites.

Our self-created rules for the bracket are:
- The books selected for the book draft should be published within the last 5 years.
- Once a book has been in a book bracket at our school, it cannot be in another one.
- An individual teacher or small groups of teachers can nominate a book for the book draft.
- We try to select books that all or most classes have not read yet.
- Read, enjoy, and chat about books!
