Summer Reading Program 2009
Program Details
WHO: Children age birth to 11 (children who are not yet reading can have someone read to them).
WHEN: June 22-August 30
HOW: Register for the program at either of Renton's libraries starting June 22, and pick up a free summer reading record. For each book that is read, each 15 minutes that a child reads or is read to, or for each 15 minutes a child listens to an audiobook, they can mark their program booklet.
