Reading Assignment
You have the opportunity to make a difference
in the world of literature. This
assignment enables you to become an official voter for either or both the
Sasquatch Award or Young Reader’s Choice Award.
Between now and March 2013, you will read a minimum of two books off of one of these award
lists. You may read more than two off of
each list or a few from both lists if you want. You will vote on your favorite book from each
list in March. In January, you will get
more details for a project that you will complete to go along with your
reading. However, please note, that each book you read will have a blog entry.
Details to follow.
This is not an assignment to
wait to complete.
