READsquared is an online reading program that tracks reading logs, issues virtual challenges, and awards certificates.
What is the Happy Birthday Reading Challenge? Happy Birthday Reading Challenges are open to the community to celebrate prospective birthdays. Prospective donors are asked to sponsor reading challenges by providing prizes for the community for successful participants. This month’s Happy Birthday Reading Challenge is sponsored and paid for by the family of birthday celebrant Alexandra Demapan Birnbrich who celebrated her 6th birthday on Wednesday, April 28, 2021.
Alexandra loves the library and loves reading. In honor of autism awareness month and her 6th birthday, Alexandra challenges the first 10 children (ages 0-12 years old) who read 6 books (ebooks, audio books, or physical books from the JKPL) and successfully complete their READsquared virtual reading log will receive $10 cash money!
The first 30 children who complete the challenge will be enrolled in a virtual raffle for one lucky child to receive a family pool pass for 4 to World Resort! Offer expires May 31, 2021.
