Less than 250 pages

I hope all you readers are still making progress on your 2025 reading challenge to read 25 books following 25 different prompts. And if not, today is a great day to start or return to the challenge. And even if you don’t want to participate in the challenge, we hope you will visit the library and borrow a book. Reading can be a very important part of life and help us all relax, know more, become more empathetic and even sleep better. Another reason for adults to read is to show children in their life that reading can be an activity of choice and that it is one of the many ways we learn throughout our entire lives. Grab a book today and let a child see you reading. If you do most of your reading digitally these days, show your children the screen so they see you are reading.
