There's a big party for top readers August 15.
What you get: Besides becoming a better reader, you can earn points for great prizes.
Last year there were laptop computers, cameras, coupons for restaurants, etc. The points are earned by how long you read, not by how many books you read.
Who's eligible: Children up to 18 years old. Parents can read to little ones who cannot yet read for themselves.
