Summer is the time to have fun! Read any age-appropriate book that you like. If you need some help choosing a book to get started, talk to the librarian.
Children ages 14 and younger register in the Children’s Room of the Uniontown Public Library beginning June 17th.
They will receive a reading and activity log to record the books and activities they complete this summer. When they reach their goal, they will receive prizes. Children who are too young to read may have books read to them.
