Get lost in a good book with the Worlds of Words Center’s Reading Ambassadors as they host their 3rd-annual Read-a-thon! The middle and high school reading ambassadors encourage booklovers of all ages to join them for focused reading paired with fun prompts. There is no physical location for the Read-a-thon, so participants can join on Instagram from anywhere they would like to read!

Teen Reading Ambassadors will include the young adult fantasy novel, Into the Heartless Wood by Joanna Ruth Meyer on their reading lists, while the Middle School Reading Ambassadors’ focus on The Plentiful Darkness, by Heather Kassner. Read-a-thon participants can read these books or any books they are dying to read—tackle Mt. TBR (to be read) or ignore it all together! The titles on everyone’s reading list will be shared on Instagram as a way to build reading lists!

Read our full press release for additional information, and mark your calendar for May 7 when the ambassadors will welcome the featured authors to the WOW Center!

Teen and Middle School Reading Ambassador author meetings occur every other month throughout the academic year. This free program for area youth encourages them to promote reading in their own contexts. Additional information on the Teen Reading Ambassadors is available on our website under the About tab.
