Reading Champion Pin
The design
On the pin
A round pin with a teal ring and a gold-tone rim. READING runs across the top and CHAMPION along the bottom, around an open book with white pages and a teal binding.
What it means
An open book is the plainest sign of reading for pleasure. The word champion makes it a prize to work toward, which is how reading challenges and summer reading programs use it.
Colors and finish
Teal and gold are bright without being childish, so the pin suits students from first grade to middle school. The pages can be white or cream.

When to order
March is a popular month for school reading celebrations, and public libraries run summer reading programs from June to August, so orders come twice a year.
