📚 As the school year wraps up, the adventure doesn't have to stop!

Summer is the perfect time to dive into new worlds. Reading just 20 minutes a day over the break helps kids keep their minds sharp, builds vocabulary, and sparks incredible creativity.

Tip for parents: Beat the summer heat with a weekly trip to Drake Community Library or create a cozy "reading fort" at home with blankets and pillows!

What is your child’s absolute favorite book right now? Tell us in the comments so other families can add it to their summer reading list! 👇
