Kids Color Our World 2025
Jun 14, 2025 - Aug 09, 2025
This program is designed for kids from pre-K through grade 5 (generally aged 2 to 11) to encourage life-long learning and curiosity. Use one of our
paper bead trackers
to track your reading to show our volunteers and choose your beads!
Recording your books on
ReadSquared will earn you points toward raffle tickets
for end of summer prizes.
We have lots of fun things including personal story times, honorary librarian (for a day), robots, Crayola Experience tickets, and more for end of summer prize packages.
Using the bead tracker lets you keep track of what kinds of books you read through the summer. Each time you read a book it can only count as one type of book - picture book, animal book, mystery book, graphic novel, etc. Each type of book will earn you a bead for your summer reading necklace and create a keepsake that you will have well after the summer is over. EVERYONE who registers will get a necklace, only those who read and record their reading will add beads to their necklaces and get a chance at prizes at the end of summer.

Girls Rule!
by Phyllis Reynolds Naylor
View in Library Catalog
I did not like this book because the author only focused on the problem of the Malloys and their neighbors. She did not give much detail and only showed one side of the story. I would not recommend this book to anyone.??

Lu
by Jason Reynolds
View in Library Catalog
Lu by Jason Reynolds is the last book in the track series. Personally, I thought that this book was second best (after the first book, Ghost). This book was mainly about Lu and his different points of views of the track team, the coach and the big secret that his dad is keeping. I really enjoyed reading this book because of its twists and turns. Also it was very interesting to see how characters that Lu thought he knew show a totally different side of themselves outside of school or outside the track.
John The Skeleton

I would give this book a 5 star rating because I love how in this picture book there is mini chapters. Also I love how in each mini chapter there is a new story about John, Gramps, and Grams!

Arnie the Doughnut
by Laurie Keller
View in Library Catalog
I think this was an awesome book! I love how Arnie is a doughnut and how at first, Arnie is so excited for someone to buy him. Then he learns that Mr. Bing eats the doughnuts everyday and how he's about to eat Arnie. Arnie is very surprised! But at the end, Mr. Bing and Arnie find a way for Mr. Bing to use Arnie instead of eating him. Mr. Bing decides to keep Arnie as a pet. I give this book 5 stars and would recommend this book to children who love doughnuts and a great book!
Mango Shaped Space
by Wendy Mass
View in Library Catalog
Mango Shaped Space by Wendy Mass is a very intimate book, it is about a girl named Mia, who has a condition called synesthesia, and nobody, not even her own mother belives her and this results in a series of very interesting events. This book teaches you a very good lesson about life. I would recommend this book to anyone who likes realistic fiction or just wants a fun sort of relatable book to read.
Swim Team
by Johnnie Christmas
View in Library Catalog
Swim Team by Johnnie Christmas is a graphic novel. It is about the main character, Bree, facing her fears of swimming. At first, Bree didn't even like pools and swimming. However, she starts to practice swimming after she gets into a swimming elective in school. Bree eventually joins the swim team and to the amazement of others, faces her fears. During her time in the swim team, Bree faces many difficulties from not being able to swim to fighting with teammates. But she eventually figures things out. I think that this book was a good book and was very easy to understand.

by Rachel Renee Russell

I enjoyed the little sketches, the main character nikki made and I also liked how she described all her feelings into her notebook. I felt happy that she is sharing her feelings.
