Battle of the Books

What is Battle of the Books?

  • Each school year, teams of middle schoolers read a list of recommended high-interest books of various genres
  • They compete in a "battle" to see which teams know the books the best
  • They compete against each other AND against students in other schools in South Asia

How does it work?

  • Assemble a team (3-5 people)
  • Plan a strategy for reading all of the books among the members of your team
  • Read the books starting in December
  • Prepare for the Battle: Teams practice in Semester II
