Catch the Reading Bug @ your library
& Metamorphosis @ your library

The 2008 summer reading program will explore the world of insects and far beyond. The children's theme - Catch the Reading Bug - and the teen theme - Metamorphosis @ your library - will feature science, games, arts activities, and much more to help participants maintain their skills during school vacation. Best of all, there will be plenty of voluntary reading and fun, fun, fun!!!
