Reading Dragons
The Reading Dragons program is a free, card-based reading incentive program that encourages Elementary school-aged children to read for fun. Participants can collect dragon trading cards and play card games.
**The program was developed by the Dover Public Library in Ohio and is based on the idea that adding a gaming element to reading can be beneficial.
For every hour of reading, you can earn a Reading Dragon trading card, up to 4 cards per month.
Participants can simply collect cards or challenge friends to tournaments!

To play, you and a friend each choose one card secretly, keeping it hidden so your friend can’t see what you chose. Then count to 3 and both of you flip over your cards to see who wins.
