October is National Book Month. Reading books can be such a fun activity – you can discover new people and places, you can learn about new hobbies or it can just be a fun way to pass the time! This month, Cavman’s challenge for you is to find some new books to read and have a chance to win some prizes too!
Below are the challenges based on grade levels:
