Summer Reading for Children: One World, Many Stories

Who: Anyone - babies to 12 year olds
What: A free program that gives you prizes just for reading
When: June 1- August 6, 2011
Where: All Enoch Pratt Free Library locations
Why: Because it's fun

How: Go to your local library and ask to sign up for the reading program. Write down the titles of the books you read on your "One World, Many Stories" reading log or color in the time that you read on your time tracker. Go back to the library after reading  4 books or for 4 hours to get a prize. Once you have read 8 books or for 8 hours you get the t-shirt prize shown.

Many daycares and camps participate in the library summer reading program as part of their activities. Check to see if your group is already participating.

 
Possible prizes include T-shirts, card games, round-the-world yo-yos, world explorer rubber duckies, and Orioles tickets!





Don't know what to read?  
Ask the librarian for suggestions, or print a Summer Reading bookmark!
Choose one for your age group, print it, then fold it in half so one side shows a list of great books for summer reading. The artwork was drawn by Baltimore City kids just like you.

Special Summer Performers
Watch for special shows all summer long. The library isn't just about books and reading, it's about learning, fun, and community. As a special bonus, if you hear a story in one of the performances, you can count that story towards your 8 books in the summer reading program. Just write down the name of the story on your reading log.
