Summer Reading Challenge - Pirate Map 2016

Description

Due to lack of registration for in-library programming in 2016, we decided to only run a Reading Challenge and our regularly scheduled story time during the summer of 2016.

The kids earned stickers for every book they read in the summer, and every time they hit a treasure chest they would get a prize, when they completed the map, they would get a bigger prize! This was a 72 book challenge. We only had 4 kids finish the entire map.
