Summer Reading Starts June 1st - For Little Ones Too!

It's almost time for the Library's annual Summer Reading Programs! Don't forget that we have Summer Reading for babies and toddlers, too! This year, the Pre-Reader program has a track for infants to 2 year-olds and a track for ages 3-5. Come into any branch to get a Gameboard or register online at thelibrary.org/summerreading. Complete fun activities or read together to finish your child's track and then come in to your favorite branch to pick up your prizes. All children who complete the program get a Fresh Start Fine Waiver Card and a free book of their choice! You can only do the Gameboard once, but if you finish before the summer is over you can keep reading and playing to complete up to 9 Star Reader Challenges. Each Challenge enters you into drawings for end-of-summer prizes like book totes, coupons for free books and gift cards! You have until August 7th to finish the program and pick up your prizes. What a fun way to spend the summer reading, singing and playing! And don't forget, we have Summer Reading programs for all ages - babies through adults!
