Dover Public Library’s 2016 Reading Challenge
Starting in January, we challenge you to read one book for each theme provided. Use our check
list to keep track and see if you can get through all 20 books by the end of the year (not
necessarily in the order provided). There are no prizes – just a fun, personal challenge for you!
If you have any questions or need help picking out books to read, ask a librarian or visit our
Pinterest page https://www.pinterest.com/doverpl/2016-reading-challenge/ for ideas. Good luck!
