And with it comes The Summer Reading Game! It’s a free game that encourages your kids to read or be read to over the summer. It’s already begun. Kids win prizes for every section they complete. Sign them up today! (I’d give you a link, but you have to go to the library to do it.)

And for the truly adventurous, the library’s also offering their normal “read for life” program for adults. Pick up a card at the library and read or listen to four to six books. ( Not seven and eight is right out). Do this and you’ll be entered in a drawing for some fabulous prizes!

Interested in alternative forms of education? Learn about the principles and practice, as well as careers opportunities at the Montessori Institute Northwest, 4506 SE Belmont. July 23rd, 6:30 – 8:30pm.

Here’s something fun to do-

Your kid, in grades 6-12, can enter a writing contest made possible by the Library Foundation. Gift cards from Powell’s Books is a great prize! The sections are divided by prose and poetry, and are also divided for grades 6-8 and 9-12. Get More Information!
