Do you have children 12 years of age and younger that love to read? I do, and we are joining with Family Christian (affiliate link) to promote reading literacy this summer with their summer reading program. It is a fun activity and your children can earn a $10 certificate from Family Christian just by reading 6 of their favorite christian books, or some of the suggested books on the list below, then complete a book report form.
