    On a serious note - neat concept, maybe pick an interesting hook from a bunch of books to encourage kids to read them

    On an unserious note - Paper. They taste like paper. Old paper.

      I can’t help but think of that episode of TNG with the following exchange:

      Q: “What must I do to prove to you people that I’m mortal?”

      Worf: “Die.”

      Q: “Oh, very good, Worf. Eat any good books lately?”

    Never heard it called something like this, but it seems like an interesting idea. I assume they’re going to expose the kids to a bunch of books and hopefully pique their interest?

      have a bunch of books that are age appropriate to 12 year olds, let them wander around and read the first few pages of each, and go “I want to finish this one” and check it out from the library? I hope that’s what this is, that sounds the most sane.

      I thought they’d have foods that were related to certain books, like a book with a prominent apple in it, here have some apple. But that feels more like something for 5 year olds.
