Children are invited to participate in a summer reading challenge as well. There will be prizes, raffles, and new books given away each week. Lots of reading, entertainment, and projects to keep your child engaged in learning.
Summer reading helps children to maintain their reading level and INCREASE it as well. Whether your child is home-schooled or attends a public or private school, summer reading is essential. Join us this summer at the Placitas Community Library,
