Summer Reading Campaign 'Hot for Reading' brings reading fun to the holidays
On July 14, 2026, the Summer Reading Campaign 'Hot for Reading' for children who will be entering grades 2 to 7 will kick off in Freiburg. The campaign runs until September 19, 2026, and participation is free of charge. The focus is on the joy of reading, imagination, and a child-friendly library experience full of small discoveries.

Read, discover, participate
Families can enjoy a relaxed holiday moment with genuine learning fun: children can borrow books with 'Hot for Reading' stickers, record their impressions in a logbook, and collect stamps for their participation. Those interested can also create a reading roll or a new cover. This makes reading playful, age-appropriate, and motivating.

Designed for children, well organized for families
The campaign has been proven to strengthen reading and text comprehension as well as linguistic competence. At the same time, the Freiburg City Library, with its children and youth library at Münsterplatz 17, provides a clear, family-friendly framework. Free participation is possible even without a library card. ([rpf.baden-wuerttemberg.de](https://rpf.baden-wuerttemberg.de/abt2/ref23/bibliothek/heiss-auf-lesenc/))
