⚜️XAR the Bookwyrm (xar-the-bookwyrm) ⚜Foreman Trea's Keep America Beautiful Challenge

description

Among other things, April is Keep America Beautiful Month. I've always had a connection to the Keep America Beautiful posters that feature the Native American Indian Chiefs that look so sad about the garbage situations, probably because I am 1/4th Native American myself. When the need arose for an alternate Foreman Challenge, I immediately thought of this!

How To’s:
• Pick your Level
• Read one book per task
• Re-reads are allowed
