It's All About the Books, 'Bout the Books (No TV)

We're bringing reading back!  Oh, yeah!  Or at least that's what we're trying to do with this year's tremendous, stupendous, and all around fun (*drum roll*)...summer...reading... PROGRAM!!!  (*Thunderous applause!*)  WooHOO!!! 

Okay, now that we've announced it, here's the real scoop, the low down, the dirty details:

• This year's theme is music-centered--Read to the Rhythm!
• The program runs between June 1 and August 31.
• It's open to kids, teens, and adults (in other words, everyone).
• If kids are too young to read, it still counts if books are read to them.
• Kids and teens get PRIZES for turning in reading logs.
• Adults get a Post It cube or a book bag for turning in their first reading slip.
• There are PRIZES.
• Adults get their reading slips put in a drawing for a gift card at the end of the summer.
• Teens get their logs put in a drawing for a treat at the end of the summer, too.
• Kids have their own drawing for a big Mercer Mayer Little Critter doll.
• The dragon is back for the kids--find where he's hiding each week for an extra PRIZE.
• There are PRIZES.
• There are fun events throughout the summer (just check The Link or call the Base Library at 509-247-5556).
