Gobble Up a Good Book Reading Challenge

Friday, November 6 2026 12:00 AM @ Hayner Library | Alton, IL

About this event

Make reading a delicious adventure! Readers can complete fun bingo challenges by reading books, attending library programs, exploring the library, discovering new genres and topics, and enjoying stories along the way. Every completed square brings participants one step closer to bingo while building literacy skills, sparking imagination, and celebrating the joy of reading. Separate bingo cards are available for ages birth–5 and ages 6–11, with activities designed for each age group. Each completed bingo earns a fun prize, and once you’ve finished your card, you’ll be entered for a chance to win one of our grand prizes! Our youngest readers, ages birth–3, are also invited to choose a prize from the Baby Prize Bin for each bingo they complete. Ready, set, gobble up a good book!
