The MS Readathon is about having fun to raise money to help change the lives of people in Australia who have MS.

This year, you can raise money by recording how many books you read as well as how much time you spend reading!

This means that every minute you read during the month of June goes towards raising more money…and earning more cool reading rewards.

Below are all the things you are allowed to read during the MS Readathon.

Remember to write down on your Record List how many books you read, as well as all the time you spend reading, so you can earn cool rewards and help change the lives of people living with MS.
