SPCA Reading Challenge

The SPCA Reading Challenge is an interactive reading challenge found here.

The challenge is open to children aged five and up. Register for free and choose an animal team to ‘play’ for. Players log the books they read over the summer, along with a star rating and short review. A leader board keeps track of the teams as they move up and down the rankings accordingly.
