The Reading Without Walls Challenge

Take part in the #ReadingWithoutWalls Challenge issued by the National Ambassador of Young People’s Literature!

Here’s how to do it:

1. Read a book about a character who doesn’t look like you or live like you.

2. Read a book about a topic you don’t know much about.

3. Read a book in a format that you don’t normally read for fun. This might be a chapter book, a graphic novel, a book in verse, a picture book, or a hybrid book.

If you really want to go for the gold star, read a book that fits all three criteria!

When you finish, take a photo of you and the book (or just the book if you’re shy) and post it on Twitter or Instagram with the hashtag #ReadingWithoutWalls. You’ll inspire others to do the same!

Read without walls and see what happens.  You may surprise yourself!

Here are some titles to try out:
