Read Books, Win Pizza 🍕! Remember as a kid when you’d track your daily reading and get rewarded with pizza? This November take the DMPL 30x30 Challenge and once again you can read 📚 and win pizza from 🍕. https://www.dmpl.org/30x30-challenge Ages 18+

The rules for the 30x30 Challenge are simple:

Step 1. Read 30 minutes or 30 pages a day for all 30 days in November.

Step 2: When you complete the challenge, fill out a simple form online and you’ll be entered into a drawing to win free pizza from our friends at Gusto Pizza Co.

Use your own calendar or download our handout to track your progress, and feel free to read ahead or catch up at the end if you fall behind (just be sure to read 900 minutes or 900 pages in November).
