BattleoftheBooks 1

 

Congratulations to this year’s Battle of the Books winners! This was an entirely virtual event and hosted teams from GPAEA’ region. Students participated in tests about the booklist and heard a presentation from author, Rosanne Parry. Rosanne lives in Oregon and writes in her treehouse in her backyard. Her latest book A Horse Name Sky is set to release in September.
