Prizes! Winter Read: Year of the Dog
Make a resolution to read more in 2018? Or to read to your kids more? Get a head start by picking up a 2018 Winter Read log sheet at the library! This year’s Winter Read theme is all about dogs, since the 2018 Chinese New Year is “The Year of the Dog.” It’s easy to get prizes and raffle ticket entries to one of the two gift baskets on display in the Children’s Department. Winter Read runs January 12th-February 25th, and you can still sign up and win. Some suggestions of books to read about dogs are below, but you don’t have to read about dogs…you can read about anything you want!
