Individual students can participate or teachers can get
their whole class involved. It is something like the Pizza Hut in that students or classes
can work for prizes. The teacher or the child can choose the book (and a very nice
suggestion list is provided based on individual readability level and interest), take a
short quiz (with opportunity to retake) and earn points toward prizes. Teachers (or
parents) can get a printout anytime of what books the child has read and been quizzed on.
