Library’s summer reading
program to kick off soon
Submitted by County of Los
Angeles Public Library
When school lets out and
children are looking for vacation
fun and adventure,
they can join the library’s
summer reading and discovery
program, “Reading by
Design!” and check out the
summer reading and learning
activities at their county
library.
The Malibu Library is located
at 23519 Civic Center
Way. For more information,
call (310) 456-6438.
From June through August
this summer, the County of
Los Angeles Public Library
will introduce children to
reading and learning adventures
at all county libraries.
Participating children
track their own progress by
recording the activities they
complete and books they
read or have read to them.
Using a take-home Reading
Game card or by registering
for the online Reading Game
and tracking their progress,
each child can earn free
books! Plus they can enjoy
the many fun and interesting
activities planned for them,
including programs featuring
STEAM (Science, Technology,
Engineering, Art and
Math education).
Reading is a great way to
use free time, and the library
is ready to help children
make the most of their vacation.
Art activities, puzzles,
special programs, as well as
books, eBooks, magazines,
CDs, and DVDs are offered
by LA County libraries and
will provide hours of enjoyment
for children. And did
you know that the more a
child reads, the better head
start they have when school
begins again?
For more information
about summer fun at County
of Los Angeles Public
Library, call or visit your
