Summer Challenge
The 2025 Summer Challenge theme is WILD SUMMER! Each week will feature a different wild animal host sharing ideas for pairing books with summer fun! There will be book lists, discussion starters, activity ideas, music playlists, and free downloads each week!
On this page you will find links to all the posts and all the downloadable PDFs that we’ll be sharing throughout the summer. WILD SUMMER lasts from June 2 to August 11, but you can join us any time! Be sure to fill out this form for a chance to win books at the end of the summer. If you post about the challenge on social media, tag us on Instagram and use the hashtag #RDDSummerChallenge2025.
Have a fun (and wild) summer!
