We introduced Brag Tags back in August to easily reward kids who have read certain classic children's books.
Several kids took these Brag Tags as a serious challenge and made it their mission to read and thus collect as many Brag Tags as possible.
So far, Kyrie Bean is the first kid to get through all 49 books! Good work Kyrie!
