Children’s Summer Reading Winners!

Reading is their Super Power! A huge thanks to the Library for its Summer Reading Program, which keeps kids reading all summer long. Over 3000 children and 1000 teens signed up for the program this year and they read over 37,000 books!

For those of you who are curious, that’s about 9 books per under-18-year-old. (Kids who read 6+ books over the summer are less likely to lose reading skills while school is out.) That’s awesome!

Just look at these poised young ladies picking up their reading prizes.

 

And these kids showing off their best power poses!

 

Thanks to KeyPoint Credit Union, Mission City Community Fund, and people like you for contributing to another awesome summer full of books!
