Read To Me Picture Book challenge


I’ve been in search of a challenging and fun picture book reading challenge and and I found it at There's A Book. This will be the first annual Read to Me – A Picture Book Reading Challenge.

•The objective of the Read to Me Challenge is to read with the kiddos in your life and/or enjoy picture books in general.
•Books must be ones written expressly for children ages 9 and under. Board books, early readers, picture books, etc.
•Print or eBook format is acceptable.
•Anyone can join. You don’t have to be a blogger, and you don’t have to live in the United States. Open worldwide.
•You do not have to have an blog to participate.
•You can join at anytime. Deadline to join is November 20, 2011. (not 2010 you still have PLENTY of time to sign up!) The challenge runs from January 1, 2011 to December 31, 2011.

Please visit There's A Book for the rest of the details.

I have decided to join at the “Unjacketed” and read and review 36 picture books during the year . I plan to review 3 each month. I'm a teacher so I'll read many many more than that but will choose some I like especially through the year.
