Children who participate in the reading challenge will be rewarded for every 10 hours of reading completed. Any child who reaches 40 hours of reading over the summer will also be entered into a drawing for a grand prize.

Last year's challenge drew 180 active readers who logged more than 150,000 minutes of reading combined, according to the library.
