Summer Reading Club!

A couple of weeks ago, we stumbled upon St. Louis County Library's summer reading club kick-off event at the Eureka branch. While I returned and picked out new books, Tessa enjoyed the balloon animals, face painting, crafts and snacks. I didn't know whether the program would excite Tessa at her age but figured why not. Well, it has! Tessa has been working hard reading extra books ever since. Today, she completed the first level of her passport by reading her eleventh and twelfth books. I was so proud of her, as she nearly read them fluently! (Not something that happens every day yet.) Hopefully, we'll be able to take her to collect her prize this weekend. She's super excited to see what it might be and has been making all sorts of guesses.

Tessa read "Jack and Jill and Big Dog Bill" and "Bob Books: As Big As" today to complete the first level of her summer reading passport.
