Why Children’s Summer Reading Challenges Are Important

Come June, many public libraries in the U.S., UK, and Canada offer summer reading challenges to keep kids reading after school lets out. As a children’s librarian, summer is easily the best time of year in our job because enthusiastic kiddos fill the library, super jazzed to complete the challenge and receive a medal. Who doesn’t like a fun test of their abilities? Plus, school is out, so kids are happier and around way more often, giving the library space an extra buzz.
