Mineola Library's 2012 FALL Reading Challenge discussion

There are only 2 tasks in Level 8, however they are each worth 50 tickets.
There are 4 parts to each task and ALL 4 parts must be completed.



If you've ever been camping, you probably remember those sweet, gooey, warm and messy treats called s'mores. For this task you need to read a book from each option below. Remember there is a 100 page minimum for anyone 13 years old or older. All books must have a cover picture posted.

A. Read a book whose title has at least five of the letters you find in the word marshmallow.
The only letters that you can use twice are M, A and L.

B. The chocolate of choice for a s'more is the Hershey Bar. Read a book set in Pennsylvania. Use Books Set In Pennsylvania for help.

C. The Graham Cracker used for the cookie part of the s'more is usually the one without the sugar sprinkles because the chocolate and marshmallow are so sweet. So in honor of the Graham Cracker, you will read a book by an author whose name is Graham. It can be their first or last name.

D. This one should be fun! Read a book that has the words "Some" OR "More" in the title. If you really want to challenge yourself and get an extra ticket, read a book that has both "Some" and "More" in the title.
