This year at school, there is a book challenge called 8 for 8. It is extremely similar to last year’s 7 for 7 book challenge, except this one has eight books and more things you can do to enter.
The books are:
- Scavengers by Darren Simpson
- The Skylarks War by Hilary McKay
- The Twisted Tree by Rachel Burge
- The Island by M. A. Bennet
- Don’t Stop Thinking About Tomorrow by Siobhan Curham
- Bone Talk by Candy Gourlay
- Everything All At Once by Steven Camden (aka Polarbear)
- And The Ocean Was Our Sky by Patrick Ness
These eight books are all set from different perspectives and times. Everything All At Once is a book of poetry telling a story about school life. The Skylarks war has romance and history. There are many other things that make each book unique.
The things you can do to enter are:
- Film a book trailer video
- Make a piece of artwork
- Write a piece of creative writing
- Perform a performance
- Write a blog or a review
- Film a booktalking video
- Or absolutely anything else!
These have to be based on your favourite 8 for 8 book, to try and encourage more people to read that book.
Hi Dillon.Hope you’re ok and looking forward to Christmas and more holidays after all the hard school work.An interesting selection of 8 books for this years challenge.Have you decided which format you’ll use to enter yet? xxxx
Yes, I’m looking forward to reading the books. I’m not sure what I’ll do to enter yet. I want to make a book trailer in the next few days; and I might write a review on some of them as well.
