New to Spotlight Stories in the UTR app: Second Lady Usha Vance is reading the 2026 Book for the Military Child, Home Moves With Me.
This summer, the Second Lady is inviting students in grades K–8 to participate in her Summer Reading Challenge. From June 1 through September 4, students who read 12 books can earn prizes and be entered for a chance to visit Washington, D.C.
From fiction to history, biographies to mysteries, every book opens the door to something new—and every book counts. Ready to get started? Visit WH.gov/read to sign up and learn more.
We encourage you to cheer on the young readers in your life and share this opportunity with the schools, libraries, and organizations in your community.
P.S. If you’re working on a UTR Summer Reading Bingo card with your child, you’ll be happy to know that you can participate in both programs at the same time. We fully support a little summer reading double-dipping!
