Welcome to the NC Reading Competition!
The reading competitions are some of my favorite events of the year, and I hope they are yours as well! All bibliophiles are welcome to join our teams. It's a great way to make friends and share your love of reading with others. It's also a great way to find some new awesome books to try!
Book Reviews: To see reviews of content, reading level, and maturity level, check out these websites: Goodreads.com, ARbookfind.com, and https://www.commonsensemedia.org/book-reviews. Please do not commit yourself to reading a book you and your parents are not comfortable with.
Practice Sites: http://www.bookadventure.com/, http://www.funtrivia.com/quizzes/literature/young_adult_fiction.html
Accessing Books: Our school library will have 1 copy of each book on the list. I also have a few of the books in my classroom library. If someone else has already checked out a book you need, try a public library near you (I KNOW the Marienville library has most of the books, and am sure others do as well). If they don't have a book, ebook or audio CD for you, they can order it from another library! You could also ask Mrs. Barron to place a hold for you or use interlibrary loan. Some books are in ebook format as well--ask Mrs. Barron which books you can check out for your Kindle, Nook, Kobo, or other ereaders. Also, some books can be found for free on the Project Gutenberg website!
Fall and spring competition information (including permission forms) can be found below, as can pictures from previous events.
