Summer Reading is here, and we’re excited to invite readers of all ages to join us for a summer of adventure, discovery, and fun! This year’s theme, Unearth a Story, celebrates the joy of exploring new ideas through books while also digging into history as our nation approaches its 250th anniversary. From a Kids’ Boston Tea Party and a visit from President Lincoln to hands-on gardening programs, wildlife presentations, local history treasures, and performances by the Lincoln High School Band, there is something for everyone on this year’s calendar. Participants can earn entries for prize drawings by reading or listening to books throughout June and July, making Summer Reading a great way to learn, explore, and connect with our community all summer long. Stop by the library to join the adventure!
