2009 Summer Reading Club In Wylie, Texas is Almost Over

During the summer, Texas public libraries participate in the Texas Summer Reading Club. This year's theme is Libraries: Deep In The Heart Of Texas! It's easy to join, just visit your library and sign up.

Here in Wylie, the last day to turn in your reading log is July 31st. But you still plenty of time to participate. Children from birth to 11 can sign up (there is also an adult reading club) and you only need to read 10 titles or 10 hours. This year we did the 10 hours, it took a bit longer but was more fun. We turned our logs in last week after story time and here's what each of my kids received:

- Official Reading Club Certificate

- One paperback book

- Prize (my kids each picked a cactus finger puppet)

- One FREE Texas Rangers ticket for July 19th game (additional tickets at a discount)

- Coupon for FREE cookie dough at Papa Murphy's (or 1/2 off a pizza)

- Coupon for FREE Men's or Boy's haircut at SportsClips

- Coupon for a FREE personal pizza at Napolis Pizza & Restaurant

- Coupon for FREE admission to Texas Skatium in Garland

Pretty awesome prizes, huh? Don't forget Story Time is today. :)
