Account Creator: Your first name, last name, age (programs are age based), and a password are required for registration.
Beanstack will ask if you would like to register another adult or child
At the top of the page you will see several links.
Challenges Readers are welcomed to join the ‘Imagine Your Story’ summer reading challenge based on their ages.
Badges

Reviews
Readers may write Reviews! Reviews are seen by everyone using Beanstack, but only the Account Creator’s first name andlast initial will be seen. Readers other than the Account Creator are ‘Kid Reader’
Example:
If you want your last initial to be removed, your account can be edited to remove your last name.

You type in the title and Beanstack will find the cover! Fun!

Logging Books/Minutes
Click on the button when you are ready to log reading or activities.
If an account has more than one Reader, choose the appropriate Reader’s account.
