Summer Reading 2009 is almost here!

As always, Tenafly Public Library will be buzzing with activity in the summer. Our Summer Reading Club kick off and start of sign ups for Tenafly students is scheduled for June 24th at 3:00 PM. Tenafly students from K through grade 5 can sign up for the Summer Reading Club and Tenafly families with pre-K children can sign up for the family summer reading club.

For the Family Summer Readers Club, the family will get a 'game board' with activities to do together. For every five activities that are completed, the toddlers/pre-schoolers in the family can come in an receive a small prize. There are also story times and craft hours planned throughout the summer for pre-K aged children.

For the Summer Reading Club, students who join are asked to keep track of the time they spend reading. For every 5 hours of reading, students can receive a prize from the treasure chest. Students are limited to no more than 2 prizes a week. Students may pick any books, magazines, papers, or graphic novels they like with parental approval. The club will continue through August 21st.


Children of all ages are invited to come and stretch their creativity with master storyteller Jonathon Kruk on June 24th at 3:00 PM. Jonathon will share stories appropriate for all ages.
