How does 500 Books Before Middle School work?
Track your reading - After reading, check or color in a star for every book read. Be sure to count each time you read a book, not each individual title.
Bring in your log - Show us your log and you will receive a small prize for every 50 books you read. When you read 250 books, you will receive a free book.
Read More Books - After completion of 500 books, you will receive another free book.
