This annual event begins each spring as book lists are published for the following year's contest. During the school year, teams of up to 12 students work together to read the books and write questions individually so that they can practice answering questions about all 25 books on the list. A contest is held each March or April for hundreds of teams around the Bucks County area. The list of books is published by the Bucks County Intermediate Unit. The 2022 competition will be conducted virtually due to COVID restrictions.
Ribbons are awarded for points scored during three rounds of competition. All teams receive a ribbon - the color depends on total points scored.
