Dig Into Reading!

The weather is getting warmer and children everywhere are counting down those last few days of school. Summer vacation will soon be upon us - more time outdoors; more time with family and friends; and more time to read!

Handley Regional Library is thrilled to announce the launch of our 2013 Summer Reading Program, Dig Into Reading.

Dig into Reading is a fantastic programe for all children and teens.  Just 15 to 30 minutes of daily reading helps children and young adults become better readers, and it's an excellent way to ensure that over the summer they don't lose all that important learning they gained over the school year.  

You can register for Dig into Reading any time after June 1st. Click here to register online or come and see us at your local library. For every six hours of reading you complete, you will receive a book from our book trunks. We'll also be giving away book themed prizes throughout the summer so be sure and register early.

There's also a whole lot of exciting things happening at your local libraries over the summer - PJ storytimes, puppets, magic, pirates - even gnomes on the roam! Click here to find more information about all the great library activities you can be a part of during the summer.

Join us for a Rally for Reading on Saturday the first of June at Bowman Library between 11am and 2:30pm, and help us get our summer of reading off to a fantastic start. 

Here's to summer and here's to lots of super summer stories! Get out there and Dig into Reading!
