Book Buddies is a free program that brings children and teen volunteers together to share the joy of reading. It pairs trained volunteers (Big Buddies) with children in Kindergarten through 3rd grades (Little Buddies). For 10 weeks, the Buddies meet once a week in the afternoon for 45 minutes of one-on-one shared reading.
The Fall cycle of Book Buddies will run from September 17th to November 19th. Reading sessions will be in the library meeting room.

What we offer:
In this program, one person's trash is another person's craft! This is a twist on scrapbooking, in which the journaler collects junk (receipts, tags, tickets, labels, produce stickers, magazine cut-outs, or whatever other flat item), then makes art out of the items by arranging, then gluing or taping and adding other mediums (sketching, painting, writing, etc.) All materials will be provided, including scrap materials, journals and snacks. No registration is required. This program is for teens ages 13-18.
