The 2026-2027 Reading Log
Looking for an easy, free printable reading log for the school year? Pop in your email below and this book log will come right to your inbox!
One of my favorite things about starting a new school year is starting fresh with a new routine and getting everything organized! This 2026-2027 school year version of the reading log is the perfect way to get your kids reading this school year!
You may remember the original one from Hadley Designs, the 2021 from Carrot Top Paper Shop, the 2022 years from HnH Design, the 2023 one from Liza Design Co, the 2024 Emily Cromwell Designs, and the one from 2025 InGardenDesigns! (all of them are available still as undated versions, if you’d like to use one of them this year too!).
And now, just in time for a new school year of reading, this STUNNING 2026-2027 student reading log from Spaghetti Tree Games is available!
When I saw it for the first time, I loved it and then when I had it printed out in a big version instead of a tiny digital version on my phone, I REALLY loved it!
It’s SO BEAUTIFUL!
If you have a reading goal for the 2026-2027 school year, this is for you! (Or for your classroom or family!).
There are more than 75 places you can track your books, from book spines to the adorable library card!
If your goal is to read 12 books, then you can color in everything except for 12 books spines.
If you’re aiming for 25 or 50 or 75, you can do the same.
If you read MORE than 75 books this school year, fill this one up and then print off a second one!
There are so many ways to use the free printable reading log for school – you can print off a big version and hang it on your classroom wall or a smaller size that fits on a bulletin board or a small version to tape or glue in the front of your planner or journal.
(If you’d like to print off a big size, here are the step-by-step directions for how to do an engineering print – you’ll be hooked on how spectacular they are AND how cheap they are!)
You can write the titles of the books you want to read this year on the spines and then color them in when you’ve finished them.
You could color them all in now and then write the titles in as you read them.
You can use a color code to differentiate between audiobooks and paper books or grown-up books and read-alouds or books by diverse authors or new releases and classics.
Basically the book logging possibilities are endless.
And it’s perfect for all ages – kids and adults alike.
I release the annual book log pre-Christmas so that people could gift it along with a favorite book or print out copies for their book club members or give it as neighbor gifts. This version is just as easily adaptable. Give it to your kids the night before school starts or if you are a teacher, print them out for your back to school night! The options are endless and I LOVE hearing all the clever ways people use it!
No matter how you choose to use the 2026-2027 free printable reading log – I hope it’ll make this coming year of reading one of your best yet.
I can’t wait to see you use this free printable reading log – it’s going to be a fantastic school year!

I’ve been looking for a bookish puzzle for a long time. All the ones I find have tons of cats and books, and I’m not a cat person. 😆I think this one fits what I’ve been imagining in my head. Thanks for telling us it’s a puzzle too!
