About Knights of the Fabled Reader

LORE, a historical education group, wants to encourage reading through an event based literacy program, the Knights of the Fabled Reader. This reading program is aimed at beginning readers from the elementary grade level. This program is to encourage reading and how it brings history to life and to help them develop the love of reading.

Once your child has read five books and filled out a book report form, they will earn (1) child and (1) adult day tickets to the Koroneburg Renaissance Festival. Just present your form to our ticket booth at the festival! This way you and your child can attend this historical reenactment festival put on by LORE.

The key to this program is emphasizing freedom of choice and the aspects of reading your child enjoys. Your child gets to choose what books they read!
