Summer Reading 2023

Did You Know? GDS students, regardless of where they live, can get a card for the DC Public Libraries. GDS also encourages participation in DCPL’s Discover Summer program.

Summer Reading Challenge.
Submit a photo of a PK–8th grade student reading a book via bit.ly/GDSSummerReading2022 or by email. We love to see photos of LMS summer readers! We will use all the photos for a joyful collage of reading at the beginning of the school year.

Looking for more?
We have tried to create lists that are inclusive and diverse around a variety of topics, yet also not so overwhelmingly long! If you find your family wanting more or different suggestions, try these resources:

• Horn Book Notes on Summer Reading

• ALSC Summer Reading Lists
