What EXACTLY is the Battle of the Books? Do I have to go to battle practices? Do I have to commit lunch hours in the library? Do I have to lock myself in my room for hours on end?!! NO!! You just have to enjoy reading and read two books on your own time. When it is time for you to battle, your team will go up against another team and you duel with your brain power. No one will get hurt...except you may end up with a headache! Come by the library on Thursday to check out the books!
