(EBOB)
Elementary Battle of the Books (EBOB) is a book trivia competition open to 4th and 5th grade students. EBOB teams from each elementary school in Lincoln County will compete against each other in March (date TBD).
All Battle of the Books questions follow the same format. All questions begin with, "In which book..." Each question will be answered with the book title and the author’s full name. Character names are not used in questions. The page number for the location of the answer in the book is listed as well.
