Allerton Library's summer reading program is simple, fun, and open to all children under 18. After kids sign up, they take home a reading log. They can read anything they want (audiobooks also count) and they should keep track of their minutes on the log. After 200 minutes, they can bring the log in and get a bag full of prizes. After 500 minutes (in other words, 300 additional minutes), they can bring the log in again and get a second bag of even cooler prizes. Kids who want to keep going should keep recording their minutes, because large prizes are awarded to the 15 readers who have the most minutes at the end of the program.
The reading program starts on June 4 and ends on July 27. Kids can sign up for the program anytime between May 12 (Library Luau day) and July 27, but June 4 is the earliest day they can begin counting minutes. They have to stop counting minutes on July 27.
When kids sign up, they will get a reading log, information about reading goals and prizes, and a bookmark. They may also pick up activity calendars and sign up for activities (for more info on activities, please go here) but they don't have to do the activities in order to participate in the reading program. Kids must come in to the library to sign up.
