School’s out and it is time for the summer reading programs! This year Barnes and Noble has a summer reading program where kids can earn a free paperback book.
From the Barnes and Noble website:
Here’s How It Works:
1. Kids read any eight (8) books of their own choosing.
2. Kids use the Summer Reading Journal to tell us their favorite part of each book. A parent/guardian signs the journal when it’s complete. You can also get a Spanish-language Reading Journal.
3. Children bring their completed Reading Journal to a Barnes & Noble store between May 26th & September 7th, 2009.
4. We’ll give them a coupon for a FREE book! They choose from a list of exceptional paperback titles.
One coupon per child grades 1-6.
What a great way to encourage your child to read this summer. Don’t forget to stop by my site every Thursday for book recommendations for kids and grown-ups with The Book Basket series.
Thanks Angel for the tip!







Oh wonderful! Thank you for sharing this. I will have to share this on my blog for others to see. My daughter (6) is so excited! She is quite a reader so this will be fun for her.
We have already started this. It is great fun.
We have started this also! Who can resist FREE books????
