Mark your calendar for summer fun as the Children’s Room of the Meadville Public Library presents “Dragons, Dreams and Daring Deeds” for its summer reading club starting June 13.

The summer program is open to children from preschool through grade 6 with enough prizes, story times, activities and performers to make the summer fly by.

To participate, a child must be a member of one of Crawford County’s libraries. Preschoolers and summer visitors to the area may use a relative’s card. A special Knight ID, complete with barcode, is the passport to summer reading pleasure and prizes. For every library book read, children will get a stamp on their ID. Preschoolers must listen to two books to get a stamp. For every 4 stamps, a prize may be selected from the display case. When they’ve collected 12 stamps, participants qualify for two chances to win in the Grand Prize drawings during our Summer Reading Club Party.

There will be a full slate of activies following along the medieval theme as drawn by renowned author and artist, Steven Kellogg. Each arts & crafts program will be divided into two activities – one for younger children and one for older elementary school aged children.
