My Project

I am an elementary school librarian and need these books for our Reading Bowl Book Club. My Reading Bowl Club is a buzzer competition using questions about the books from the 2025 Georgia Book Award Nominee list for our fourth and fifth grades.

The Reading Bowl Book Club will prepare a team to compete at the district level Helen Ruffin Reading Bowl competition in January of 2025.

These books will be circulated through our library for our Reading Bowl Book Club members. I love to see our students read a variety of books and have fun competing against each other.
