Summer Reading Club takes a trip ‘Around the World’

Readers young and old can set out on a once-in-a-lifetime adventure to faraway places. Through reading and programs, they will let the wind carry them through arid deserts, over snow-capped mountains and across glittering oceans as they fill their travel journals with photos and share their treasured memories in postcards home.

StoryWalks bring family story time outside

StoryWalks featuring Let’s go! haw êkwa! by Julie Flett are set up in parks and along trails in the Tri-Counties this summer as part of Western Counties Regional Library’s Summer Reading Club experience.
