Happy 80th birthday to Smokey the Bear! In honor of this milestone birthday, you’re invited to participate in Superior Public Library’s Smokey Bear Reading Challenge during the months of April and May! Start by taking Smokey’s Pledge, then read 3 books on wildfire prevention or the environment, and earn 4 activity badges to complete the challenge & earn your Smokey Bear prizes!

This reading challenge is tracked completely online using Beanstack and is intended for children aged 4-10 — although all are welcome to participate! The Smokey Bear Reading Challenge ends May 31.
