A few quotes that were shared:

• I absolutely adored the read a thon! I was committed to read and had so much fun doing it. I’m sad that the read a thon is now over I never wanted it to end! I finished so many books and would wake up early every morning so I would be able read! I didn’t stop reading and was completely addicted my books.
• This was a great motivator for (child). He used a timer to keep track of all his time and took on the responsibility of logging all his minutes. Thanks!
• (Child)’s reading ability took a huge jump during the readathon, this is always a great event!
• Love how this inspired my grade 1 to try hard at reading!
• It was really fun. I enjoyed reading. The chance to win some new books and prizes. The read-a-thon is a really cool thing that Adam Beck does. 

Congratulations, Bears!
