Summer is just around the corner, and that means the summer reading program is coming to the Riddle City Library! We've got a summer full of all-ages fun planned, so don't forget to sign up! Below is a schedule of kids' and teens' programs, but adults will be happy to know they can “read a book and win a basket" by submitting a ticket for every book they read into a drawing for a chance to win one of two fun themed baskets. There is also a “mystery quilt" program for teens and adults who sew during all of June and July. The mystery quilt project will wrap up with a summer tea garden and quilt show!
