40 Book Challenge Student Guidelines
The 40 Book Challenge is a personal reading journey, not a contest or assignment. The goal is to help you grow as a reader by exploring new books and genres for fun and personal enjoyment.
Guidelines & Tips:
This is independent reading—read what interests you!
Take the Genre Personality Quiz to discover what genres you might love.
Be adventurous: try new genres, authors, and series.
Get recommendations from your teacher or librarian.
Choose books that challenge you and fit your grade level.
Share your reading through discussions, book clubs, or buddy reads.
Support and inspire each other to read beyond your comfort zone.
Milestone Merriment
Milestone Merriment
While there is no reward for completing this challenge (other than personal growth and a sense of accomplishment), we do want to celebrate each milestone a student reaches in their reading journey.
For every 10 Book milestone, students who are taking on the 40 Book Challenge will get to celebrate at the library.
