Summer Reading

The heat wave this week is the surest sign that summer is finally here (though the anxious faces on the kids finishing their final weeks of school was another dead giveaway).

Summer reading signups are underway now for kids and teens at the Jasper County Public Library. Adult programs will be held this summer also.

Children can enjoy programs including a bubbleologist, a magician, the Silly Safaris crew and more. Teens will have gaming parties and food events. Adults have their own selection of programs including a local history presentation on the Grand Kankakee Marsh.

And though we know the reading itself is reward enough, there will be prizes to keep you motivated to keep turning those pages all summer long.

So this summer, "Make a Splash at Your Library," “Water Your Mind: Read,” and don’t miss the chance to “take a mental vacation” this summer by escaping into a good book!
