How can you join in?
- Read the battle stories, and at the end of each story, vote for the character you think will win the battle. The winners move on to Round 2, and the winners of Round 2 will battle to be the book character champion!!! Check the schedule page for the voting dates.
- You can vote on every story - but just once per story please!
- Each class in our school is supporting a book character. We'd love it if you could get behind your character - read their stories, find out about them, tell your friends how great that character is and why.
- You can vote in all the battles, not just for the character your class is supporting. Ask your family and friends to vote too!
- Room 12 helped us get things started by making some awesome posters that they showed at assembly. Thanks, Room 12, you guys rock!! Check out the posters on the wall outside the library.
- You might want to write your own ending to the stories we've started, and we might choose some to share on this website!
