Summer Reading Kickoff Party

Level Up at Your Library!

Sign up for summer reading, earn some raffle tickets, play games, and have lots of fun!

Summer Reading at the Dedham Public Library is here! The theme this year is Level Up at Your Library. If you see dragons and castles and hear people talking about sports and games, you are in the right place. Sign up anytime between June 23 and August 23. We are going to have a lot of fun programs to enjoy and prizes you can win, all while reading and enjoying your summer.

When you sign up, you will receive a reading log for tracking your reading, a backpack to keep all of your materials in, a calendar of all of our events, a raffle ticket to enter to win one of our great prizes, and more.

We have two different summer reading programs for kids:

We have the Reading Duckies and Friends Program, where you will earn a rubber duck for every 5 books you read! This program is for our youngest friends, who are learning how to read.

And we have the Reading Dragons and Friends Program, where you will earn a set of 4 dragon cards for every 2 hours you read! This program is geared for kids who are in school and are independent readers.

You can earn raffle tickets in both programs, and if you finish your program, you will receive a GRAND PRIZE raffle ticket to enter to win a Nintendo Switch Lite! We also have activities kids can complete to earn more raffle tickets. 

For all ages. Registration is not required for the Summer Reading Kickoff Party, but encouraged. See you there! Stop by either library for more information, or email Jenny at jdurant@minlib.net.
