Local Seacoast libraries are offering the perfect remedy for those chilly days spent indoors: winter reading challenges! These programs encourage readers of all ages to dive into books and explore new genres. Whether an avid reader or just starting out learning to read, winter reading challenges across the Seacoast provide fun incentives and a sense of connection during the coldest months of the year. You can sign up at your local library and start tracking you and your child's reading hours and complete themed tasks, which make reading a rewarding experience. We found a few local Seacoast libraries offering reading challenges. Help combat those winter blues while fostering a love of books!
