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.

The Windeby Puzzle
by Lois Lowry
View in Library Catalog
The Windeby Puzzle by Lois Lowry is a historical fiction. It is easy to read and you can learn more about a skeleton of a young child that was found in the Windeby bog. The author, Lois Lowry wrote the story in two different endings after she noticed that the first story she wrote was inaccurate. The second story is written by another character's point of view and the endings are different. Both the stories show the lives of Iron Age people. I loved how the author made an accurate story using the details that she had and I would recommend the book to people who like historical fiction.
Sunny
by Jason Reynolds
View in Library Catalog
Sunny by Jason Reynolds is a realistic fiction. The book is mainly about Sunny and his life on and outside of track. Sunny was one of the best long-distance runners on the track team but didn't enjoy running anymore so he decided to try the discus instead. This book is the third book in the track series and was written as a diary. Personally, I would rate this book a 4 out of 5 because it focused more on Sunny's thoughts than what actually happened.

Welcome To Moldy Manor (geronimo Stilton #59)
by Geronimo Stilton

This book was okay. I thought the author did not give a lot of information on how geronimo solved his problem of overspending. The one thing I liked about it was that it was very interesting to read about and how he handled the situation.

The Mysterious Benedict Society
by Trenton Lee Stewart
View in Library Catalog
The Mysterious Benedict Society is a mystery and adventure fiction book. The book was about 4 children on a dangerous mission to save the world. The 4 children are all orphans with many talents. Their goal is to go to a certain boarding school and find out how and why Mr. Curtain (the antagonist of the story) is planning to control people's minds. This book was a fairly long book with approximately 500 pages and it was a little hard to understand in some parts. However, if you like mystery, then this book is so much fun and interesting.

I did not really like this book. Because I feel that the author made it a little bit confusing to read because of the perspectives.
