How to play the Book of Life

- Read one book from each stage. Stages are a part of the path with the same colour.
- Pink question mark titles are “random event” tiles. You can choose to read a book from a question mark category instead of from each stage. A list of question mark events is available below and on the instruction sheet.
- Whenever you encounter an orange tile, you decide which path to take. Pick any blue tile on your chosen path.
- Mark the categories you have chosen and completed.
- We have put together booklists to help you find books that fit the categories you have chosen.
