JACKSON LIBRARY CONTINUES SUMMER READING PROGRAM

The theme for the library's summer reading program is "Rock Your World -- Read!" All children, preschool through sixth grade of the 1995 school year are invited to participate in the reading and activities programs.

Awards will be given for reading achievement. Children that read five books will receive a colorful rectangle sticker designed by Woodleigh Hubbard.

Children who read 10 books will receive a colorful kazoo for preschool through second grade and children in grades 3-6 will get an earth squeeze ball.

If 15 books are read, they will receive a paperback book of the child's choice from an approved selection of titles; a book marker for a free hamburger from Burger King; a reading certificate and a chance to win one of the prizes in the display case in a random drawing

Children who read 20 or more books and for each five books read will become a member of the library's juke box club.

The next event will be this Wednesday with a theme of unusual old time instruments. In the olden days, such instruments were the psaltery, harp, lyre and the dulcimer. Children may have an opportunity, time permitting, to actually play one or more of these instruments. The event lasts from 1:30 to 2:30 p.m.

The following event, July 12, will be for storytelling. Children will hear the story of how "Rindercella Slops Her Dripper" and other favorite fairy tales which will be presented by Nancy Gillard.

On July 19, children can take a journey through the world of flying airplanes with a short film entitled "A Visit to the Airport." This will be presented by Jill Pinkley from 1:30 to 2:30.

The final event of the month will be on July 26 and will feature fossils and old bones. Children will see Trilobites 400 million years old and the bones of a giant marine reptile. This event will be presented by Dr. Peter Roopnarine.

The library would like children to be enrolled by July 1, but anytime in July is acceptable.
