Library King

 Every summer I host the Library King Challenge.  It came into existence when I noticed some of our avid readers weren't recording their summer reading.  After speaking with them, I learned that it was the writing piece that prevented them from recording the extent of their reading.  In response to this I created the Library King Challenge.  It is optional and any 4th or 5th grader who reads more pages than I do is in the running to be the Library King.  Titles and page numbers are kept on a Google spreadsheet that all of the boys have access to so the participants can keep track of my reading and what their peers are also reading.

This year four boys read more than I did.  I read 11 books for a total of 2702 pages.  The boy who won the challenge and will be returning to reign as Library King read 27 books for 9716, pages up from last year's 5456 pages!!
