3. Do you have any suggestions for how to improve the Read-a-thon next year? No, I thought this year was great.

4. What do you think worked really well in this year’s Read-a-thon? All of the mini-challenges...they were very good distractions.

5. How many books did you read? I finished Black Beauty and totally read four books.

6. What were the names of the books you read? Maximum Ride: School's Out--Forever, The Egypt Game, Two Girls of Gettysburg, The Graveyard Book

7. Which book did you enjoy most? They were all great books.

8. Which did you enjoy least? I liked them all equally, even though they were all very different!
