Program Description

Event Details

Join the Reading Without Walls Challenge created by Gene Luen Yang. Expand your reading horizons by reading a book about a character who doesn't look like you, a book about a topic you don't know much about, and a book in a format that you normally don't read for fun. Finish three books that meet the challenge criteria to be entered into a drawing to win a prize basket. The winner will be drawn on March 7. 

We're excited to highlight the Reading Without Walls Challenge in anticipation of our March 7 event, when Gene Luen Yang will be speaking here at the library! Thank you to the Normal Public Library Foundation for sponsoring this event!
