One World, Many Stories You Are Here

Denver Public Library's popular Summer of Reading program is in full swing for 2011. Make sure the kids and teens in your life sign up online or at any branch library location through July 30.

For many years, Summer of Reading has been a great way to encourage kids and teens reading during their summer break. Keeping young readers engaged and curious about reading and learning prepares them for the upcoming school year by acting as a bridge to keep literacy and comprehension skills sharp. Also, it doesn't hurt that there are incentives to encourage our little bookworms to keep at it. This year, thanks to our great sponsors, we're giving away backpacks, Elitch Garden passes, books and a chance to win a Dell laptop or iPod Shuffle!

The program is broken into three age groups, each with links to registration pages, reading lists, activity schedules and other great literacy resources.

Read With Me: Birth to Preschool
One World Many Stories: Grades K-5
You Are Here: Teens, Grades 6-12

Take a moment to sign your child up and spend some time reading with them this summer. In the meantime, enjoy these Summer of Reading promotional videos.
