The Summer Reading 2010 program kicked off on Thursday, June 10. It is sponsored by the Brooklyn Public Library, New York Public Library, and Queens Library

Throughout the branches, there will be giveaways throughout the summer to get our young ones to read. Game boards, game cards, bookmarks and mood pencils and more to be had!

A suggestion list according to age can be found at your local branch, and I bet your kids will be given a suggested reading list as they leave school for the summer.

The Flatlands branch, located at 2065 Flatbush Avenue have the following events scheduled so far:

Bubbles the Clown, Thursday July 15 @2:00 PM
Musical performance by Jerry Joy, Thursday, August
26 @2:00 PM

SEE YOU THERE!!!!
