Smokey Bear Reading Challenge

Feb. 1st – Nov. 28th, 2024

The USDA Forest Service is excited to collaborate with public library systems across the country on the Smokey Bear Reading Challenge in celebration of Smokey Bear’s 80th Birthday.

A fun and easy way to engage children (ages 4- 10) in reading about wildfire prevention, forests, and natural resource careers, while exploring their local environment.
