I took part in a summer reading program when I was a kid. I'd always seem to read more books than I had guessed that I would read. If I said 150 it would be more like 175 or something. lol. At the end of the summer each child got a certificate saying we'd completed the competition. Of course there were other things like field trips and being able to choose one book to keep (I think that was one way they library kept the stacks from overcrowding and made room for new books).
