Week 1: Your Story Starts Here
Welcome to the Summer Reading Challenge! 🎉
You made it! I'm so glad you're here.
I'm Leah — an English teacher, writer, and someone who genuinely believes the right book can change everything for a kid.
For the next 30 days we're going to build something simple but powerful — a daily reading habit. No pressure. No grades. No assigned books.
Just your child, a book they actually want to read, and 10–20 minutes a day.
Here's how the challenge works:
A new day unlocks each day this week
Starting Week 2 a new week unlocks every Wednesday
Each day has a short reading prompt and a fun writing activity
Use your tracker to check off every single day they show up
Don't have a book yet? Here are free options:
Your public library — free physical books, no excuses. If your child doesn't have a library card yet this is the perfect time to get one. It's free and takes five minutes
Libby — free with your library card, huge selection, great audiobooks
Hoopla — free with your library card, no wait times, instant access
Your child's school — many schools give students free access to ebook apps like Sora, MyOn, or Reading Plus. Check with your school to see what's available
Audiobooks count too — listening is reading. If your child struggles with print or just loves being read to, audiobooks are a fantastic option and build the same love of story
