As you can see from above, I had a lot of 4 star graphics! I am glad that I was able to actually read all 28 graphics and that they were mostly all very enjoyable. I did have a few that were just ok but that is expected I think. This was my first time participating in this reading challenge and I know I will participate again in the future because it was a lot of fun.
