Winners of the Get Busy Reading summer reading program recently stopped by the Courier to pick up their prizes.
The three young readers won $100 checks after answering every question correctly on story review quizzes and having their names selected in drawings separated by grade level.
The lucky winners included:
Andrew Lawhorn, 8, read “Lionel in the Summer” by Stephen Krensky in the Pre-k through 2nd grade division
Kayla White, 8, read “Matilda” by Roald Dahl in the 3rd through 6th grade division
Khalial Harris, 12, read “The Hitchhiker’s Guide to the Galaxy” in the 7th through 12th grade division
The reading program was sponsored by the Courier and the Liberty County branches of Live Oak Libraries.
