Good books are powerful. They invite us to slow down and think deeply. They help us to cultivate patience, empathy, wisdom, and moral character. They inspire us to be happier, kinder people. All the books your children read over the years add up, so be intentional about what they read. 

The Summer Reading Program from The Good and the Beautiful aims to open up the world to your children with good books so they can fly high and reach places they never dreamed! What they read really does make a difference in who they will become in this life. Join us!

With every **free physical summer reading pack (limit one per child in your household), you will receive:

  • Summer Reading Log— double-sided tri-fold reading log with an inspirational message from Jenny Phillips
  • Sticker Sheet
  • Free Book— The Legend of Bluebell Forest: Book 1 (level 5); this brand-new book can be used during the Summer Reading Program or as a reward after completing it. View sample pages.
