CHILDREN'S READING PROGRAM

Sign up for Summer Reading 2024 and start reading!
Every 500 minutes you read earns you a chance for a prize.
You will earn a virtual badge for every 500 minutes you read and log on Beanstack. Each badge wins you a chance in a drawing for an awesome prize.

Once you've read at least 500 minutes, send us a vertical photo of you holding a book and we'll make a poster of you that will hang in the library this summer. Email your photo to

The more you read, the more chances to win!
