Reading Patch Club

[2012 patch schedule] [2013 Patch Schedule]

School-aged readers in grades kindergarten and up are invited to join the Reading Patch Club. Each month members of the Club may request one new booklog featuring a certain type of book such as mystery, fantasy, or science fiction. A different category will be highlighted each month. Readers may select the highlighted booklog or a previous one they have not yet chosen. When they have finished reading the required number of books and completed the accompanying Patch Club activity, members may bring their booklog and membership card to the Youth Services Desk to receive their patch!

The books chosen must fit the category listed on the booklog and should be appropriate for the child's reading level. Booklists are provided below. The Youth Services Staff is happy to assist readers in finding additional books that meet these requirements. Signup to receive a copy of the booklist in your email every month.
