How do I track my reading?

Create a reading log for yourself or download a simple one.  Write down what you read for how long each day and keep it posted in a visible spot.  You'll see your reading-for-pleasure habit grow quickly!!

Keep track of other activities we'll post over the month, as well as of other goals and milestones you set for yourself or your team. 

The Read-a-palooza site will track fundraising activities only, but we will celebrate READING and other literacy milestones together on Saturday, October 12 from 10 am to noon at Fred Anderson Park.
