    “Raise a reader this summer,” is the invitation from the PBS Parents’ website.  When parents and children enjoy reading together, children develop a love for books and reading that can last a lifetime.  PBS Parents offers a number of programs to encourage kids to read.  Scholastics’ Summer Challenge is a program where kids can log reading minutes and earn rewards.  99 days of Summer is a program (run with parents.com) that provides fun learning tips and ideas to give your child, “a summer to remember.”  PBS Kids Raising Readers is a national effort to use the power of public media to help children (ages 2 to 8) to improve their literary skills.  See all of what PBS Parents has to offer at: www.pbs.org/parents/read/
