Olivia and Owen both competed on the Battle of the Books team this year. For this competition, students receive a list of 10 books that they must read during the school year and then they compete on teams to answer questions about the books that they've read. Olivia was on the "A" team this year, and they finished sixth out of 14 teams. Owen was on the "B" team, which finished eleventh.
Competition is always fierce, but it makes it a little more fun when your cousins also participate. I liked to see that they were all encouraging of each other even though they were on five different teams. Claire's team ended up placing third, and we were all so tickled for her.
