Children will be inspired to become readers after spending time with our Team Read teens. Together they will share a great book to keep and play games.
Children who are reading or developing the skills to read select a book to keep, then work on their reading with an encouraging teen reading mentor. Afterwards, the children and teens can play board and card games together to practice counting, color recognition, and teamwork. Week after week, kids look forward to spending this time with their new friend!
This program is intended for children. Space is limited; register in advance to reserve your spot and receive reminders. Registration will guarantee your seat until the event begins. Accessibility needs? Please contact ask@acpl.info as soon as possible - we'd love to help.
