Rules:

The Reading Patch Club is designed especially for school-aged readers in grades kindergarten and up. Each month members may request one new booklog featuring a certain type of book such as mystery, fantasy, or science fiction. A new category will be introduced each month. Readers may select the newest 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 should 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. Book lists for all the categories are available as well. Signup to receive a copy of the booklist in your email every month.
