If anyone ever tries to tell you that young people today don't read, tell them this: In the six short weeks of our summer reading program, our young readers read 2,872 books. And that's just the people who counted the titles of the books they read. Those who counted the number of pages read a total of 187, 986 pages! Congratulations to everyone who participated in Starship Adventure! If you weren't able to make it the smashing finale with Howard Pink and His Musical Garden Hoses, you can still pick up your certificate at the library desk. Congrats go to our top readers and listeners:
