**Color Our World 2025 Summer Reading Challenge**

Birth - 12th Grade

Join us for our 8th Annual Summer Reading Challenge in 2025! It’s simple—read what you enjoy! We encourage you to read for at least 20 minutes each day and to record every minute, as it will count towards both your total and your group’s total.

Pick up your first reading log during Week 1. Record your reading minutes, then return the log the following week or submit it on our website. Continue this process until the last week of the Summer Reading Program (SRP). Each participant can submit up to six reading logs.

Prizes will be awarded to the top reader in each SRP group: Birth to Kindergarten, 1st to 3rd grade, 4th to 6th grade, and 7th to 12th grade. Happy reading!

**ADULTS**  
Join our Adult Summer Reading Challenge! Find a great book and start tracking the minutes you read each day. Please submit your reading minutes weekly by picking up a weekly reading log or by submitting them on our website. A prize will be awarded to the top adult reader!
