Sail into a Summer of Reading with Flat Ziggy

Summer is a time for adventure, including adventures in reading! Join Flat Ziggy for a summer of fun.

Summer is a time for fun. It’s a time for swimming, biking, vacations, picnics—and adventure! But summer shouldn’t be a time to stop reading, and Ziggy is here to help make sure your kids remember to add reading to their summer fun list.

So Who Is Ziggy?

The Zigzag Zebra (affectionately known as Ziggy) is a familiar face to users of the All About Reading pre-reading program, but for those of you who have never met him, you’ll soon discover that Ziggy is a young zebra who loves to read right alongside young students. He is a supportive friend for beginning readers, and he loves to have a good time as he helps kids learn.

Which is exactly why Ziggy is so excited to join your kids for an exciting reading adventure this summer! Of course, we couldn’t send Ziggy to spend the summer with all of you, so we’re sending Ziggy’s representative instead…meet Flat Ziggy!

Flat Ziggy’s Summer Reading Adventure!

This summer, Flat Ziggy would like to join you and your children on a fun adventure. Here are some of the activities your child will be able to enjoy when you join Flat Ziggy’s Summer Reading Adventure:
