Classic Reading Challenge

We are excited to announce a new reading challenge!

Read 12 “classic” books between 7th and 12th grade and you’ll get one of these sweet “Greatest First Lines of Literature” mugs.

How do I know if a book is a “classic” you say?

Here are the criteria it must meet:

  1. It expresses artistic quality.
  2. It stands the test of time.
  3. It has universal appeal.
  4. It is relevant to multiple generations.
  5. There is some consensus regarding its status.

Still not sure? Come down to the teen room and we’ll help you figure it out.

Want book suggestions? No problem. We’ve got lots of those, like The Great Gatsby or To Kill a Mockingbird or The Catcher in the Rye or Frankenstien or The Invisible Man or Farenheit 451 or Slaughterhouse Five

We could go on and on. Just come on down to the teen room and ask us.

Do any classics you’ve already read count? Absolutely.

To sign up go to http://ccplswy.readsquared.com/. If you have trouble or need help, stop by or call the teen room at 307-687-9227.

Now say it with us…
