Battle of the Books Info

Battle of the Books is back!

Battle of the Books is a national reading incentive program featuring a bowl-style trivia tournament all about books.

Students battle in teams by grade level (grades 3-4 and grades 5-6). Battle of the Books is sponsored by Douglas County Libraries and Douglas County School District to celebrate the love of reading and literature.

Questions drawn from books assigned by Battle of the Books begin with “In what book…,” and test students’ ability to recall facts from each of the books. Points are earned for each correct book title and author recalled.

Reading lists for this fall’s competition are:

Battle of the Books is just one way we promote literacy and the love of reading every day.
