Reading by Design - 2017 Summer Reading Challenge
Designed for children, teens, and adults
The goal is to read EVERY DAY - any reading counts - books, graphic novels, magazines, newspapers, e-books, audiobooks, even websites.
Once you register - in person - at the Dundee Library or the Randall Oaks Library, you will receive your reading log and a bookmark.
There is a prize for each week that you read every day; just bring in your log at the end of every week to get your prize. If you can't come into the library that week, you can get your prize the next time you come. When you complete the final week, bring your reading log into the library to receive your book.
