Prereaders: ages 0-4

After registration is complete, be sure to pick up a reading log to start tracking your hours. Summer Reading Logs can be collected from the HCCPL Front Desk. You can also download the logs here.
To track the hours, you read during our Summer Reading Program, color in a box on your reading log for every hour you read. You’ll receive a prize bag and a raffle ticket for the first five hours completed. For every five hours read after that, you will earn a raffle ticket. When you have read ten hours total, you will receive a plush toy and a raffle ticket. Prizes will be raffled off at the finale July 13th.
