"Summer reading goes well with lemonade, ice-cream, beaches, and tree houses--but in a pinch, all you need is a good book. And maybe some suntan lotion."
- Mark Teague
Barnes & Noble Summer Reading
Earn a free book through the Barnes & Noble Summer Reading Program for scholars in grades 1st-6th. Barnes & Noble encourages students to read at least eight books over the summer, whether they be purchased at local retail stores, borrowed from libraries or borrowed from friends or family. This will prevent summer reading loss and help our students maintain or increase their literacy over the summer.
"One benefit of summer was that each day we had more light to read by."
