The spread of the data in the histogram shows that most rising 6th graders tend to read between 2-4 books over the summer. The distribution is skewed to the right, meaning that there are more students who read fewer books than those who read more. The range of the data in the histogram is approximately 0-10, with the majority of students falling between 1-5 books read over the summer. There are a few outliers who read 8-10 books, but they are in the minority. Overall, the data shows that most rising 6th graders read a moderate amount of books over the summer.
