Second Lady Usha Vance Issues an Important Summer Challenge for Your Children"Adventure, imagination, and discovery await—right between the pages of a book!..." -Second Lady, Usha Vance
While I'm not sure there are many expectations for a second lady of the United States, in the past, some have stuck to their private careers, while others have volunteered, written books, or served as something of a hostess at the White House. Usha has traveled around the world, both solo and with her husband, usually with one or all three kids in tow, and she's supported the first lady, Melania Trump, at various White House events. Recommended: Meet Usha Vance, America's Second Lady Over the weekend, she made a big announcement that may give us a little bit more of an idea of where her priorities will be over the next four years. "The Second Lady Summer Reading Challenge is here!" Usha posted on social media, along with a letter to children across the United States. It reads: Dear Future Summer Readers, Adventure, imagination, and discovery await - right between the pages of a book! We are excited to invite all children (K-8) to participate in the Second Lady's 2025 Summer Reading Challenge! Joining is easy: Just read 12 books of your choice between June l and September 5 and track your progress on the attached Reading Log. Each book you read brings you a step closer to completing the challenge. Once you've read 12 books, ask your parents/guardians to let us know, and we'll send you a personalized certificate and a small prize! With your completed form submission, we'll enter your name into a drawing for the chance to visit the Nation's Capital with a chaperone. Terms and conditions apply. More information can be found at wh.gov/read. We hope you will join us in participating this summer. Let the reading adventures begin!

Studies from the last few years indicate that parents aren't reading to their children anymore, and kids aren't reading on their own for fun, either. Fox News also reports that 40% of students in the US can't read at a basic level... Subscribe for free to Breaking Christian News here Continue reading Here.
