The challenge is open to children in grades K – 8, from now until September 5th. To participate, download the Summer Reading Challenge Tracker and read 12 books of your choice. Completed trackers should be submitted to: read@mail.whitehouse.gov by Friday, Sept. 5 to receive a personalized certificate, a small prize, and entrance into a raffle to visit the Nation’s Capital.
The Institute of Museum and Library Services is proud to support Second Lady Usha Vance’s nationwide Summer Reading Challenge. The challenge encourages kindergarten through eighth-grade students to continue their intellectual and personal development. As the nation’s leading supporter of museums and libraries, IMLS recognizes the critical role that public libraries play in ensuring that students have year-round access to books.
All reading done since June 1 counts, so kids can backfill their reading logs. Here’s how the program works:
- Families can print off or download this fillable reading log.
- Fill in the titles and authors of 12 books that a child reads between June 1 and September 5.
- The logs can been emailed directly to read@mail.whitehouse.gov by September 5, 2025
- That’s it!
