One summer I will never forget is the summer Kayla and I participated in a reading contest.
The local library was having a contest to encourage kids to read. I don’t think the librarians intended for us to turn into complete weirdos like Kayla and I did.
We locked ourselves in our front foyer surrounded by books and a list. We would read books as fast as our little eyes could allow. Then add them to the list.
We probably ended up winning a coupon for a free personal pan pizza with the purchase of $20 or more, but we lost a summer. We probably retained 1/25 of what we read too.
What can we say? We are both competitive… Even if it means we lock ourselves in a room and read books like freakazoids….ALL.SUMMER.LONG.
