Summer Reading Begins on June 12
Summer reading is back at the Whitefish Bay Public Library! We’ve got a program for all ages, whether you are two or one-hundred and two. From babies all the way up to teens, we’ve got paper logs to record your reading. It’s easy: read on your own, read together, be read to, or read to someone else. Keep track on your paper reading log and earn great prizes! Stop by the Youth Services desk starting June 12 to pick up your paper log. Adults can use Beanstack (https://wfblibrary.beanstack.com/reader365) to track your reading. Adults can also join in the bonus bingo challenge. Join us for a fun summer of reading!
