Summertime Reading for Kids

School's out and summer is officially here.

"No More Books!" shouts the kids on the block.

But don't listen to what they are saying because they're screaming about SCHOOL BOOKS, not the other kind. You know, the kind where you enter into a completely different world, forget about the noise around you and disappear for hours at a time with Harry Potter and the gang.

Summer reading is the perfect way to spark the imagination. You'll be surprised how the right set of books can turn into role-playing games and non-stop conversational topics all summer long.

Here's two ways to get out of the blocks and into the race to read as many books as you can before school starts again!

  • Barnes & Noble rewards kids that read just EIGHT books. Fill out their Summer Reading Log and bring it into a local store for a choice of a completely free book.
  • Borders Books & Music does a similar Summer Reading Program where if you bring in a completed Summer Reading Log, you'll get to pick-up one of several cool activity kits for only $4.99 (all are either 50% off or more the regular price) like 4-jigsaw puzzle kit, How to Draw Spongebob Square Pants kit, two different 3-book collections, and more.
