Summer reading is in full swing...

Our Summer Reading program is in its 4th week.  The children have been doing an amazing job.  At this point, they have read a total of 2016 books!!

Finding a good book can sometimes be a challenge.  To help our readers (and parents) we have a "Quick Picks" table.  Our librarians choose fiction books which are then grouped by grades (K-6) using colored ribbons.  This makes the selection process less overwhelming than walking through the stacks.

Also, on display is our collection of illustrated fiction.  These books are great for our 3rd-6th graders who are looking for varied reading material.

Keep those pages turning!
