Default 2007 Read The Book Challenge

FIND YOUR BOOK and DUST IT OFF

~~~~~~~~~~~~

IT'S TIME FOR THE ANNUAL READ THE BOOK CHALLENGE


Sign Up Begins In This Thread
October 29 thru November 4
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Reading Challenge and Assignments

(yes, there is homework involved)
will begin
November 5

This Challenge will take us from Induction to OWl and right up through Pre-Maintenance and Maintenance. It will take 4 weeks to complete. Listed is the schedule that we will follow.
November 5 -11 part one
November 12 -18 part two
November 19 -25 part three
November 26 - December 2 part four

December 3 - 9 will be a check in week for Challengers and my week to finish my spreadsheet work and get the award winners list finished. You can take this week to scan the recipes, as we will not read that part as group.

AS A CHALLENGER:
You must sign up in this thread and commit to reading your book as scheduled, you must do the required assignments and you must check in at the end of the challenge to earn the DANDR Reading Award for 2007.
You may ask questions, you can make comments as we progress through the book and the different parts. We will use this single thread throughout the Challenge.

ASSIGNMENTS:
Simple, fill-in-the-blanks bookwork will be provided in the Puzzle Page Forum.
At the beginning of each week, I will place your weekly assignment in a thread and at the end of the week, I will provide the answers.

I will guide the challenge along with the help of several other Moderators and/or Administrators

I'm in, too! :reading: I love tests! I didn't even own the 2002 edition until a few weeks ago, though I had read it a couple of times. Then, we had a Friend's of the Library book sale, and I got three 2002 editions, including one hardback, one Atkins Essentials and a DANDR 1992 edition. I previously only owned the 1999 edition.

Sunny!
