There are many World Book Days held in countries all over the planet.

The United Kingdom and Ireland's World Book Day is held on the first Thursday in March. Every child in full-time education in the UK will be given a token to purchase
a book.

Wouldn't it be wonderful if those lucky children could receive two tokens?

The Challenge Factory is sponsoring a drive to collect 100,000 tokens to distribute to children in the UK and Ireland. Every book you report generates 25 tokens. If there is an illustration in your book, the book is worth 50 tokens.

(Yes, I know, this is pretend token drive, but it's fun to see if we could accomplish such an ambitious and worthy goal. And yes, I know that 100,000 is a lot, but I've underestimated TCF members before. I think we can do it!)

Use this Completion Post, please.

I do have a question? When the book title says "Murder at the Fair,"
(A Lady Eleanor Swift Mystery Book 7)" Is the name "Lady Eleanor Swift" considered part of the title so that it would qualify for the first category?

All you need to do is report a book when you finish reading it. Use the Completion Post form that I have in Message 1.

Jeanne wrote: "I do have a question? When the book title says "Murder at the Fair," (A Lady Eleanor Swift Mystery Book 7)" Is the name "Lady Eleanor Swift" considered part of the title so that it would qualify for the first category?"

Sorry, the proper name is in the series name, not in the title of the book. It will work for Boot It! by A. M. Dassu - Read a book with consecutive vowels in the title (fair), though.

A new post, please.

It will be much easier for me to add up reported books when people make a new post. You are welcome to have more than one book in a post. If you want to wait until the end of the week to report books, that's okay, too.

I thought that would be an issue when I was writing up this challenge. I was curious and went to Amazon to use their 'Look Inside" feature. There is a drawing of one of those jellyfishes from the cover at the beginning of each chapter in the story. I'm going to call that an illustration. 50 tokens for your book!
