🦖✨What a summer! 🦕📚

Thanks to the incredible enthusiasm of our readers, families, volunteers, and sponsors, the 2026 "Unearth a Story" Summer Reading Program was a roaring success! Check out the highlights from an unforgettable season of reading, learning, and discovery.

*Please note: Readers could choose to log pages, minutes, or books, so the number of books logged represents only those who tracked their reading by book—not the total number of books read. Thank you for making this one of our best summers yet! 💚

We use READsquared, an easy online reading program you can access through the library website (link below) or a free app on your phone. It’s open to all ages and is where you’ll sign up, track reading, complete activities, play games, and find book recommendations.

If you don’t have internet access, computers are available at the library each week to use the program.

🏅 Fun digital badges
📖 Reading milestones to keep you challenged
