you know that the iREAD Resource Guide has a graphics preview chapter? You can view all graphics available for the 2023 theme in one spot and plan how you would like to use them. Check part one of your Resource Guide PDF files and look for chapter 06_2023
Graphics Preview - pages 301-334. Once you have selected the graphics you would like to use, head over to the actual graphics folder to obtain the images. This will save you time in planning and coordinating without having to open multiple file folders to
view each image.<br>

Our summer reading participants will have an opportunity to use their voices to help build our children's book collection. We'll be asking them to share and discuss their favorite books, favorite genres, favorite characters, etc. This feedback will determine
many of the books we order for the children's section. A note will be included in the front covers indicating that the books were chosen with assistance from the 2023 Summer Reading Kids. The group will be invited back to see a display of all the books we
ordered based on their suggestions!<br>
