We want to see your summer reading photos! Please! Tag us or send them our way. Reading at camp, on vacation, at home or anywhere in between. You might even end up featured on our page. 👀

You'd better 📞 somebody and let them know it's Malcolm Mitchell's Birthday!!! Happy birthday to the one and only, our fearless leader - Malcolm Mitchell.

We love seeing our READCamp campers still excited about reading this far into the summer. Keep turning those pages. We'll be cheering you on all the way to Labor Day!

While students are enjoying summer, many educators are already thinking about the year ahead. Planning. Preparing. Dreaming about what's possible. We're SO grateful for the care that starts long before students walk through the door.

We're officially halfway through READCamp 2026! Can you believe it?!? If your family has found a rhythm, keep it going. If summer got away from you, don't worry. There's still plenty of time to build a reading habit before Labor Day. Every page counts!

We know no one wants to think about the school year in the middle of summer, BUT... If a Reading Rally is something you've been hoping to bring to your school, now is a great time to reach out. Learn more now at readwithmalcolm.com.

One thing we've learned over the years is that summer reading doesn't have to be complicated. A favorite book, ten quiet minutes before bed or a routine that fits your family's schedule is enough. Those small moments are what build lasting reading habits.

One of our biggest takeaways from READUniversity was seeing educators truly connect. Thank you to everyone who made our very first READUniversity so special.

How's READCamp going so far? Have you found a routine? A favorite book? Maybe you've discovered a reader in your house you didn't expect. We'd love to hear how your summer reading journey is going. Tell us what's working and what your family is reading. 👇

One of our favorite things about summer reading is that it can happen anywhere. The beach. The porch. The backseat. A hammock… or even the barn! Reading doesn't need a classroom to make an impact.

Happy Social Media Day! READBowl started as a Facebook campaign with about 5,000 students. This year, it reached 1,086,000 participants. Not bad for a social media idea.

At this point, summer is already moving fast. READCamp helps students stay connected to reading before the gap gets bigger. There’s still time to join in and keep the momentum going. readwithmalcolm.com/readcamp

READUniversity is here! Today we bring educators together to share ideas, challenge each other and keep pushing literacy forward. We’re proud to host the very first one and grateful to everyone joining us.

Two days until READUniversity. We’re excited to bring educators together for conversations that go deeper than surface-level literacy talk. If you care about helping students become stronger readers, we’d love to have you there. readwithmalcolm.com

Happy Father’s Day! To the dads in our community, the father figures showing up every day and to Malcolm as he continues raising thoughtful, curious kids of his own… today is for you. Thank you for the love, consistency and care you bring into your families every day.

Happy Birthday to my son, Oakley. Watching you grow has been one of the greatest gifts of my life. You make us laugh, keep us on our toes and remind us every day how important it is to stay curious, kind and fully yourself. Love you always. – Dad

Juneteenth is a reminder that history deserves to be read, understood and talked about. Today is a good day to revisit stories and voices that help students connect more deeply with the people behind the history. Swipe for a few suggestions.

One of the best things about READCamp is that students can join in at any point during the summer. If you haven’t joined yet, there’s still plenty of summer left. readwithmalcolm.com/readcamp
