ABOUT the COMPETITION

"This is not a spelling bee Competition. Secondly, this is not an inter-schools competition. This competition is open to anyone within the age range 10 to 12 years who has a passion for reading." -Mrs Nkem Asoka

This event is organized by Bookville World. At Bookville World we have a passion for books, a passion for Reading, for the literary arts and all activities geared towards expanding, improving and developing one’s mind. Beyond the book store, we also provide a platform for book lovers, writers and other stakeholders within the literary space to interact.

2022 - Bookville Reading Competition

why participate?

01.

— We Educate

We hope that by participating in this contest, the children will develop the habit of reading for pleasure, be able to develop their own style of spicing up literature and therefore have an incentive to continue to open a book to read.

02.

— We Build

Remember that if our children are to be the leaders of tomorrow, they need to be properly equipped in all ways. Reading and engaging their minds early in life will set them up to be the effective leaders we envision for the future.

03.

— We Strengthen

we hope that the children will come away from this competition with the confidence to take charge of their own thinking, the confidence to put forth their ideas and challenge other ideas, status quo, if need be
