The aim of this research is to describe the reading interest of fifth-grade students at SD 101776 Sampali, identify the contributing factors, and seek solutions to improve it. The subjects of this study are the fifth-grade students of SD Negeri 101776 Sampali. The research employs a descriptive qualitative method.

Typically, students are required to read materials related to their school subjects and are pressured by upcoming exams. This leads to a situation where students view reading as a means to achieve grades rather than for enjoyment.
