Battle of the Books

Here is the list of books for our friendly Battle of the books contest.This contest is designed to get students reading a variety of fiction books. Our contest will be held on June 5th here at Montair. The questions are not super deep comprehension questions, but designed more for a friendly book battle. It would benefit each student to write a brief summary of each story to refer back to in June.

    Well, you were right that this encourages us to read what we usually don't read. I haven't heard of most of those books1

      Dear Max,
      I know, but why didn't you label it EXCLAMATION POINT and not just !, and I guess it's because I let go of the shift button before I pressed the one.
