BOOK KITS!
We’re bring some fun to reading this summer for 5th – 12th graders. You can request a personalized kit to be picked up at the library that will have a couple of books, audiobook recommendations, snacks, and fun project to go along with it all. It will be all set for you to pick up anytime during this week! When you register for one (or all) of the 4 pick-ups this summer, we’ll send you a form to fill out with interests, types of books, and allergies. We want this to be a kit you’ll enjoy! Registration is required for each week of pick-up!
