    Welcome to the second of the Incredibooks Read-a-Thon Mini Races!

    Get ready for the reading race of your lives! Your missions? To thrill your younger siblings by reading them as many books as they can possibly stand. The person who reads the most pages to their siblings wins a prize. For those of you who don't have younger siblings, don't fret! Anyone younger than you counts, be they cousin, friend, or someone you babysit.

    Keep track of the books and page counts in this thread and discover who, in the eyes of their siblings (or other younger children), totally rocks! You've got until August 10th to score as many pages as possible. Whoever reads the most pages to their younger siblings wins a set of bookmarks:

    Okay, the race is over! We had two participants, and a clear winner. Alassiel, your sibs probably think you totally rock.

    Just as with the previous race, you'll need to PM Ruth with your address so she can send you the bookmarks. I believe she is currently not anywhere near the prizes, so if you don't get an answer, wait about a week.

    No problem. My internet was down again and I just finally got it back, so I haven't been waiting.
