Summer Reading Challenge

How the Summer Reading Challenge Works:

Sign up for the 2026 Summer Reading Challenge online*, beginning June 6.

Read a book, any book, in any format!

• Children (0-5 years old) will earn a free book and raffle ticket for every 25 books read and logged.
• Children (6-12 years old) will earn a free book and raffle ticket for every 12 books read and logged.
• Teens (12-18) will earn a raffle ticket for every book read and logged and earn a free book for every 10 books read.
• Adults (18 and over) will earn a raffle ticket for every book read and logged.

Log your family’s reading online* and enter your digital tickets into our prize raffles.

Winners in each age group will be selected at the end of the summer. The more you read the greater your chances of winning!

*Participation through Beanstack is required to earn raffle tickets and prizes, but paper logs are available for those who do not wish to participate online & can be used to redeem free books.
