The Battle of the Books

If you don't know about the Battle of the Books, it is where we throw heavy, hard covered books at each other. Just kidding! It is where children sign up at libraries to do it, and then they read the required book for that week, and go to a weekly meeting where they compete against other students that have signed up for the Battle in pay Battles to see how well they know the book. Then there is a real battle where your library competes against other libraries to see how well they know they books. This year the books are The Lightning Thief; The Tale of Desperaoux; Dairy Queen; Birdwing (the author will be at the real battle); Drums, Girls, ad Dangerous Pie; and Here Lies the Librarian. It is a lot of fun, and you should do it next year.
