I have many students interested in participating. How can I include them?

You may want to run a Kids Read club in your school, and have a Semi-Final competition to determine which two teams will represent your school at the Kids Read Final Competition!

When is the Kids Read Final Competition?

We will aim to hold the competition in Spring 2025, before spring break week of most schools.

What types of questions will be asked about the books?

Most questions will be multiple-choice about details in the books (characters, plot, setting). Question types may vary. Rounds may include puzzles, acting out scenes, matching, or other question types! The aim is to promote the love of books and reading by using fun, varied questions.
