Summer Reading

School's out, and you know what that means! It's time for the Wallingford Public Library's Summer Reading Program to begin. Join us this year as we explore the wonders of Ancient Egypt. We've got another amazing game board all ready for you - so if you haven't already done so, make sure to register today!

Sign-ups are all online this year - to sign-up from home, click here. Or, stop by the Children's Library and we will be happy to help you. (Please note: your USERNAME will be your library card number, and your PASSWORD is the last four digits of your phone number.) Once you're signed up, start logging the books you've read and make sure to stop in the library to take your turns on the Ancient Egypt Gameboard. Or, for kids who aren't in school yet, you will be helping us build a giant pyramid in the middle of the Children's Library.

Don't miss out on all the fun! We hope to see you soon!

Weekly Spotlight

A pig parade really is a terrible idea. Why? Well, for one thing, pigs hate to march in straight lines. To find out all the other reasons (and there are a lot) why you shouldn't try to have a pig parade, take a look at Michael Ian Black's very funny new picture book. I promise it will keep you giggling from the first page to the last!

Want to check this book out? A Pig Parade is a Terrible Idea is shelved in with our regular Picture Books, under "B" for the authors last name. (You might also want to try looking in our "Pig" bin on the train if you can't find it on the regular shelf.)
