The Montgomery County Public Libraries has launched the Beasts and Blooms Spring Reading Challenging to encourage kids and teens to read. The challenge is open to all kids and teens up to 17-years-old.
Participants can read any book of their choice, including ebooks, which they can access with a Digital Library Card. For each hour they read, participants earn an online badge. At eight hours, participants will receive a tote bag, which they can receive once MCPL branches reopen.
Get ready, get set, Go! MCPLs spring reading challenge, Beast and Blooms, begins. For newborn to 17, this challenge is simple, read and earn badges. Read a book, any book, and log your minutes to earn badges and more. Learn more at https://t.co/rP2F4fx31M pic.twitter.com/0GS68mDRMf

The Beasts and Blooms Spring Reading Challenge ends on May 31.
