My students love finding a Golden Ticket in a book!

Met expectations
Would purchase more
I am a librarian, and I hide these tickets in library books. When a student brings a ticket they found in a book, they get to choose a prize from the "Golden Ticket Box". I reuse the tickets and hide them again.

I have had my teachers pick their favorite books and place the golden ticket inside. When students choose a book with a ticket they will get a prize (bathroom pass, lunch in the library, pencils, ect.).
