INSTRUCTIONS
Read or listen to any books, eBooks or audiobooks from the library or ask a grown-up to read to you. Once you have read, been read to or listened to an audio book fill out the My Book Review section On the challenge form and leave a review of the book you just read.
You choose how you do the review. Write the name of the book and the name of the author and rate the book out of five stars. Then you can write something, draw a picture or even create a collage, the choice is yours. Once you have done this submit or upload your entry form here. You have the entire school holidays to complete the challenge. If you finish early that’s ok because you can submit as many entries as you want. One entry for every book review you submit. The more you read, the more chances you have to win!

The entry form submitted is confirmation that the books reviewed were read by the participant. One book review is equivalent to one entry. Entry submissions close on the 27/04/2025. HB Williams Memorial Library's decision is final, and no correspondence will be entered into.
