Reading Club

Registration for the Summer Reading Program begins on Monday Hune 16, 2008. Children who read 10 books will receive a club certificate and an invitation to attend the closing party. Each week when children return the books that they have to read, they will receive a "Reading Bug" which they can redeem for prizes at the "Bug's garden" store. Children can get a "Reading Bug" by reading three books. There will be a maximum of three "Reading Bug's" per week.
