We host month-long themed reading challenges designed so you can choose your own pace and reading selection! Our Middle Grade book blog will be updated with this theme in mind, so be sure to subscribe for updates if you want to stay in the loop.
Our challenge this April is…
Some Friendly Competition
Middle Grade Books about Rivalry
Join us in matching up Middle Grade books that feature rivals through the month of April! We recommend looking for books with kooky contestants and prize-winning athletes, stories about sibling rivalries and classroom clashes, or books in which good battles against evil.
Play Along!
- Create your own reading list for the month based on our current challenge. Can’t think of any books that fit? Don’t worry! There will be lots of ideas shared on the blog throughout the month.
- Recommend any related books you love or plan on reading for this month’s reading prompt. Don’t forget to use the hashtag #MGCarousel!
