Read This! is a National Year of Reading competition for teens. It’s an expansion of something that already happens through the Centre for Youth Literature (http://www.insideadog.com.au/blog/inkys-creative-reading-prize-2011).
To enter, teens can nominate the one book they think their peers must read
in 2012 and then provide a convincing argument in the form of a creative response to the story. This will be a book review, but it could be in the form of words, pictures, film, song, or something even more avant garde.
The 2012 Creative Reading Prize opens on 1 March 2012! Got a favourite book? Think everyone should read it? Well here’s your chance to convince them and you could also share in $40,000 worth of great prizes!
