Adventure Begins at your Library!

Hi, friends, it's Percy! Wow, it's May, and that means summer -- and Summer Reading Club -- are just around the corner! This year, we're talking about how adventure begins at your library. I love reading books that take me to new places. Speaking of new places, we're going to be kicking off Summer Reading Club at someplace new: Polaris Fashion Place! We hope you'll join us on Wednesday, May 22 for this KidX Event featuring Mr. George the Librarian and me, Percy! We'll read stories, sing and dance, and there will be time for photos, too. Hope to see you there!

Percy's Tip for Grown-Ups: Kids love reading when they share it with their grownups, and it helps when they see their grownup enjoying books, too. Be sure to visit our Summer Read Club website, where you can download reading logs for your littles and for yourself!
