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.

Harbor Me
by Jacqueline Woodson
View in Library Catalog
Harbor me by Jacqueline Woodson is a fiction book. The book was mainly about the narrator of the story, Haley, and her discussions with her friends. As part of a special class, Haley and her six classmates go to the ARTT (A Room To Talk) room every Friday to talk amongst themselves (without a teacher). At first, all the children have no idea what to talk about in the room. However, as time goes on, they start to open up about their lives and the many problems in the world. Talking with each other helped the children feel better about their own problems and even make new friends. Personally, I would rate this book a four out of five because the book itself was very meaningful and thoughtful but I think that it was a pretty slow book in comparison to other books that I have read before.

by Rick Riordan
View in Library Catalog
The Tower Of Nero is the last book of the Trials of Apollo series. Apollo has to defeat Nero who is now stronger than ever and python his old enime , that would be the real challenge . I loved this book , in my opinion it was probably the best book in the sires because it was the last book so it was filled with more suspense than the other ones.
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.
