Talk, Read, Sing, Play with your kiddo! This program encourages caregivers to read to kiddos. If you read three books a night you’ll be done within a single year!

Read with your kiddo, track your reading, earn prizes and unlock badges!

Starting April 17 through May 22 on each Wednesday at 9 am caregivers can bring their baby/toddler ages 3 and under for a half hour of stories, music, dance and fun. Then stay and enjoy the library before it opens to the public.  Each child will receive a Forever Book to take home. Come to one or come for all.

Find a list for 2024 by searching the MORE catalog under “List” using the words: Battle of the Books Pepin.

This year’s elementary list is for 4, 5 and 6 grade Battle of the Books. The titles for the middle level are at the bottom of the list.

Children preschool through high school can log their reading on our paper reading folder June 10 through July 31.   Paper logging forms are available at the library starting June 8.  This year’s program is a combination of reading and activities; each level completed will allow the reader to receive a chance for prize drawings in addition to the coupons and prizes.
