Getting kids to continue reading in the summer can be an uphill battle; without the pressure of teachers and homework assignments, they often shrug off the need to keep their brain active during summer break. Borders has stepped up to offer an enticing reward to keep turning pages: a free book from a selection of popular classics for kids. All your child or children must do is read any ten books of their choice, filling out the easy to use printable form along the way. When the tenth book is read, just head to your local Borders bookstore to turn it in and collect your reward - it's that simple.

The books available are well-known and classic, and have the added benefit of being on the required summer reading list for many schools, as well. Older books like The Witch of Blackbird Pond and Johnny Tremain are complemented by new books like the Ranger's Apprentice. No matter what sort of literary tastes your child has, they're bound to find a new favorite among these diverse eight book selections. This great freebie will get your little ones reading and save you a couple bucks on a new paperback for them as well.
