I now realize this was an elaborate ruse on the part of Pizza Hut to get your parents in the door to buy themselves a pizza. As a kid you got the personal pan pizza for reading 40 books. Your parents had to buy their own food.
Does somebody want to fill me in?
Pizza Hut has a program called “BOOK IT!” which many classrooms across the country enrolled in. Teachers (or Parents over the summer or in cases of homeschool) can set a reading goal for the student and, when they reach it, can award them a coupon for a free personal pan pizza
I remember doing this in first grade. I learned that “Chapter” books counted for 2. Thought I was hacking the system.
Today I realized Pizza Hut and Book-It are the reason that every time I finish a book I crave pizza…
Aye, bada-bing, bada-boom.
