The Name That Book contest, coordinated by the
HISD Department of Library Services, serves to acquaint HISD students
with classic literature as well as contemporary award-winning books,
representing a variety of genres. The district-wide competition is
held in the spring.
“It
is wonderful to have a place at school to exchange ideas and discuss
incredible books with other students. The books on the
Name That Book list really provide something for everyone. They are
thought-provoking
and
challenging, and I have fallen in love with some great
books I probably wouldn’t have read if it hadn’t been for Name That
Book. I have also made friends that I probably wouldn’t have made if not
for Name That Book!”
