Additional information

This year we will be at various parks from from 11:30 AM - 12:30 PM on Tuesdays and Thursdays. Children and families can pick their own book to take home from a wide selection of books, do a fun craft activity and hear stories read aloud. The Book Bike encourages summer reading by modeling that reading is fun!

We will also host two summer parties at the end of Book Bike at Russell Field (July 31, 5:30-7:00 PM) and Clement Morgan Park (August 7th, 5:30-7:00 PM).
