In 2020, WPL is challenging you to read something different, something new to you.  Each month we will unveil a topic and encourage you to read a book that fits into that topic.

Participate as you can; take on one, two or all twelve challenges.  Not sure what to read?  WPL will have books pulled aside that meet the challenge – stop in and check one out.

To be eligible for a drawing at the end of each month for participating, sign-up beginning in December through Beanstack (an online service through wpl.org) OR at WPL’s circulation desk.  Each month, we’ll pull an adult’s and child’s name for a prize.
