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.

This Book Is Secret
by Pseudonymous Bosch
View in Library Catalog
I like this book a lot, especially the secret theme. Throughout the book there are many mysteries to solve. Cass and Max Ernest find a secret note from Pietro the famous magician. Then they go to Pietro's house to investigate. But that is only the start of their wild adventure. At the end they barely escape the Midnight Sun a group of evil alchemists. Read this book it is a lot of fun!
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.
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!

Tales From A Not-so-happy Birthday
by Rachel Renée Russell
View in Library Catalog
This book was okay because i felt that the author mainly focused on nikki's birthday party and not other things that she should be concerned about. But I liked that she solved her main problem of planning her dream party.

Ghost
by Jason Reynolds
View in Library Catalog
Ghost by Jason Reynolds is a fiction book. It is about the main character, Ghost (his real name is Castle), and his life as a runner. When he joins the track team, Ghost makes many new friends, but he must make many sacrifices to fit in and control his anger. I think that this book is very entertaining and I would definitely recommend it. It makes you want to keep on reading until you finish the book. This is the first book in Track series by Jason Reynolds and I am planning to read the others too!
