The initiative, which runs through March 31, 2027, aims to sustain momentum following last year’s successful engagement of over 700,000 children. This year’s effort features a rotating monthly curriculum centered on themes like community, sustainability, and innovation. Participants will have access to exclusive read-aloud sessions from renowned creators including Joanna Ho, Peter H. Reynolds, and Brad Meltzer.

Reading Is Fundamental Kicks Off Sixth Annual Rally to Read 100
A nationwide call to action begins today as Reading Is Fundamental launches its sixth annual Rally to Read 100. The six-month campaign challenges students and families to complete 100 books by March 2027, pairing interactive read-alouds with literacy resources ahead of the nonprofit’s 60th anniversary celebration.
To support the goal of 100 books, the program provides free classroom and at-home materials, including Spanish-language resources. Barnes & Noble, acting as the inspiration partner, will also facilitate a massive book donation sweepstakes. One hundred selected educators will receive 100 books each, resulting in 10,000 volumes distributed to classrooms and youth organizations. The program culminates in a live national event simulcast from a New York City Barnes & Noble location during National Reading Month.
