Reading Challenge logo

The January results for our 2010 Bookmans' Reading Challenge are in and they're simply AMAZING! We have an overwhelming response this year, and in the first month of the challenge, students from the 73 participating Arizona schools read an incredible 285,266 books! (in January alone...WOW!)

The Bookmans' Reading Challenge is now in its fourth year of encouraging literacy and a love of reading in K-5 Arizona students. It is a three-month challenge, and at the conclusion of the challenge, the school with the highest average number of books read per student will win the grand prize of $15,000 to spend as they see fit! We're also offering second and third place prizes of $1,000 for a Bookmans shopping spree.
