Summer Reading Clubs start June 1

Summer is here. Time to find things to keep yourselves busy. In between ballgames and visits to the pool, make sure to find some time to read. READ?! Over the summer? YES! Reading is a skill just like playing a sport or musical instrument—if you don’t practice, you won’t get better. That is where Summer Reading Club at the St. Louis County Library comes in. If you read just a little bit over the summer, you can earn some great prizes. And guess what! We have summer reading clubs for all ages: Babies, Kids, Teens and Adults. So everyone in the family can join in the fun.

Don’t forget to check our Events page or our events brochure for some great programs this summer too. We will have performers, movie nights, craft programs and more, so there is something for everyone.

STARTS: June 1

WHERE: all 20 St. Louis County Library branches

HOW:

1.       Come to your local branch and get a log sheet

2.       Keep track of your reading by using either number of minutes or number of books

3.       You can read books, magazines, comic books or even listen to audio books—whatever you want.

4.       Read to yourself, read to someone else or have someone else read to you—it all counts

5.       When you reach each level, come in for your prize.

REMEMBER: Summer Reading Club ends on August 4. Make sure to pick up your prizes by then.
