Whole Wide World @ My Library

June 9 - August 1, 2008

About the Program

How do I get involved with Summer Reading?
Go to your local branch of the Palm Beach County Public Library at any time during the program to register.

How much does Summer Reading cost?
Nothing!  It's absolutely free!

What will I be reading?
You may read magazines, newspapers, books from a school reading list, or any book that you like!

If someone can't read yet, can they still join?
No one is too young to join in the fun!  Good listening counts for children who have not yet learned to read.

I am a teen. Am I too old for Summer Reading?
Never!  There is a special program exclusively for Teens.

How much do I have to read?
Just 10 hours of reading earns you a certificate, a visit to the Treasure Box, plus a voucher for two tickets to the Friday, August 8 Jupiter Hammerheads vs Palm Beach Cardinals baseball game (while supplies last). You will also be eligible to enter a drawing to be an Honorary Bat Kid for the baseball game (drawing ends Thursday, July 24th).

Will there be any special Summer Reading Events at my library?
Absolutely!  Don't miss any of the fun programs at your library. There are activities for all ages, just ask at your library or check out the Children's Programs listings. There will also be book drawings throughout the program.
