📚 Make reading extra fun this summer with the annual Barnes & Noble Summer Reading Program! Kids in grades 1–6 can earn a FREE book just by reading this summer.
Here’s How it Works:
- Each time you complete two books (one matchup on your journal), bring your journal to your local
Barnes & Noble store. You’ll receive an exclusive Summer Reading sticker and create a recommendation slip for your favorite of the two books — your recommendation slip will be displayed in the store! - Return after each completed matchup to collect your sticker and share another recommendation.
Be sure to check out other kids’ recommendation slips for ideas on what to read next. - After completing all four matchups on your journal, you’ll complete your full sticker collection and earn a special Barnes & Noble Champion sticker. Keep your journal so you can look back on all the great books you read this summer.
- Finally, select a book from the for free (while supplies last).
