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 May is…
Cold-Blooded Creatures
Middle Grade Books about Reptiles
Join us in reading scaly Middle Grade books through the month of May! We recommend looking for reptilian-inspired sci-fi species, covers that feature crocodiles, chameleons, or cobra, and kids with a fascination with herpetology.
Play Along!
