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.

Emmie & Friends: Truly Tyler

This book was no fun at all. I think that there was no comedy or challenging point for the character so I got bored.
Starfish
by Lisa Fipps
View in Library Catalog
Starfish by Lisa Fipps is a fiction poem book. The book is about the main character, Ellie, getting bullied by her friends, strangers, and even her own family just because of her weight. Ellie just wantes people to see her inside self, not just her looks. She must fight and gain courage to stand up for herself. Luckily, she isn't alone. Even though this book was a poem book (and I usually don't like poem books) I really enjoyed reading it. I think that many people who get bullied or don't get seen as their true selves would gain courage that they are not alone after reading the book.
Ballet Cat Dance! Dance! Underpants!

I love this book because it is a funny book. This book is about ballet and I love ballet so much is another way I can exercise in a classy and calming way. Butter bear said supper high leaps are showy and pointing toes is classy. This is also my favorite ballet and only book. Butter bear stopped doing super high leaps because everyone will laugh at her underpants. At the time Butter Bear was leaping and showed the underpants, I laughed!
The Running Dream
by Wendelin Van Draanen
View in Library Catalog
The Running Dream by Wendelin Van Draanen is a fiction. It is about Jessica, the main character, facing many challenges after she got in a car accident and lost her leg. To make matters worse, Jessica used to be a runner. Now, she has to start her whole life over, starting from learning how to walk. This book was very inspirational to me because even in tough situations, Jessica didn't give up and fought her struggles till the end. I would definitely recommend this book to people who like running or need something to encourage them in their lives.

I like it because I love fireflies. The pictures looked cute and nice. I like a lot how the book ended. I like it because Luke saves the other fireflies.

by Lindsay Currie
View in Library Catalog
I love how in each escape room, there is a problem or conflict that the characters face to struggle. It is either with their friendship or just trying to get out of the room itself.
