When
Get lost in a good book with the Worlds of Words Reading Ambassadors as they host their 7th-annual Read-a-thon!
The middle and high school Reading Ambassadors encourage book lovers of all ages to join us for focused reading paired with fun prompts. Hang out with us here in the Worlds of Words Center or join on Instagram from anywhere you like to read!
The Reading Ambassadors will include Alone, written by Megan E. Freeman, on our reading lists. Read-a-thon participants can read this book or any books you are dying to read — tackle Mt. TBR (to be read) or ignore the pile all together and grab a new book! The titles on everyone’s reading list will be shared on Instagram Stories as a way to build reading lists!
“The Read-A-Thons I’ve been a part of remain my best excuse to spend hours reading uninterrupted,” says Quin, Teen Reading Ambassador.
Check out the Reading Ambassadors’ previous 6 years of Read-a-thons in the highlights of our Instagram page @wowteenambassadors.
Mark your calendar for 1:30 p.m. on Saturday, May 9 when the Reading Ambassadors welcome Megan E. Freeman to Worlds of Words.
Ticketed parking is available in the Second St. Garage and metered parking is available on the street/surface level through the Passport Mobile Parking app. Worlds of Words Center is also located just off of the 2nd St. Modern Streetcar stop.
