What is Battle of the Books?

Battle of the Books is an exciting reading competition for all students. Students form teams of 4-6 and as a group, read all twenty titles on the Battle of the Books list. You should start reading at the beginning of the school year. 

The team competes in a Family Feud type competition, where competing teams face off answering questions of the type: "In which book did one of the characters suddenly see the color red?" Answer: The Giver by Lois Lowry.

Talk to your English teacher, and tell them you are planning to compete in Battle of the Books. Most teachers will accept titles on the list for credit for their outside reading assignments, as well as give extra credit for participating in the competition.

This year's competition will be held after school in the auditorium on May 1, 2025.
