Cover to Cover: 2024 Reading Challenge
Adults and Teens in Tuscarawas County are encouraged to participate in the County Library’s Cover to Cover Reading Challenge. Participants are challenged to read 20 different books from specific genres throughout 2024. Those who complete the challenge will receive a free umbrella inscribed with the words “I’d Rather Be Reading.”

Interested participants can download the Beanstack Tracker app on any smartphone or tablet or visit tusclibrary.beanstack.org on the web. A paper version of the challenge will also be offered in the latest edition of Between the Lines – the library programming newsletter is delivered by mail to homes within the Library’s service district in Tuscarawas County.

Reading Level Resources

Looking for books to match your child’s reading level?
The Tuscarawas County Public Library System organizes children’s books by subject (nonfiction via the Dewey Decimal System) or author (fiction) rather than reading level. Our fiction spine labels do indicate if a book is a beginner reader(BR), easy (E), chapter (CH), or juvenile (J) book. Beginner readers, sometimes known as easy or early readers, usually consist of sight words and words that are easy to decode using phonics. The font is large and clear for independent readers.
