Reading for the Whole Family: Summer Reading Club 2012 at the Burlingame Public Library

The Burlingame Public Library would like to encourage everyone to keep reading this summer!  The library offers Summer Reading Clubs for all ages, from pre-readers to adults, so the whole family can participate. 

We offer a Listener’s Summer Reading Club for babies, toddlers, and preschool children to join with their parents and listen to stories this summer.  This year’s theme is “Dream Big Listen” and children who listen to 20 books between June 18 and July 31 will receive a paperback book of their choice and a pizza coupon for Round Table Pizza.

 “Dream Big Read” is the elementary reading club for children going into first through fifth grade. Students in this club read six books and receive a free paperback book of their choice as well as a Round Table pizza coupon.  Also, each finisher receives a raffle ticket for a chance to win the Grand Prize – our large library alligator!

 “Own the Night” is the theme for this year’s teen summer reading club for students going into sixth through twelfth grade.  Read four books and complete your reading log by July 31^st to receive a $10 gift card for Books, Inc. Teens finishing the club are also entered into a raffle for the Teen Grand Prize – a Kindle Fire!

 “Tasty Reads” is the theme of the adult summer reading club.  Read 3 books and complete your reading log by July 31^st to be eligible to win a Kindle Fire! 

Weekly events include a prize raffle and free Family Fun Nights featuring live entertainment, Martin Yan of the TV show, Yan Can Cook, and more!
