This June the weather is heating up but so is the competition! The Pratt’s annual program, Summer Challenge, returns June 12 to August 14 at all Pratt Libraries. This year’s theme is A Universe of Stories.

Don’t miss out on the chance to win prizes, while exploring the joy of reading. The free program is a great way for students to avoid the “summer slide”, the loss of academic skills during summer vacation. The program is open to all ages! Kids, teens, and adults can participate so go ahead and sign up the family.

We have programs designed for different age groups:

• Read-to-Me Children (aged 5 years and younger)
• School-age Children (kindergarten through 5th grade)
• Summer Groups (for teachers, camp instructors, day care providers)
• Teens
• Adults

Join in the fun now!
Register online at prattlibrary.beanstack.org, or ask a librarian for help at any Pratt Library location.

This year marks the 75th anniversary of the Normandy landings on June 6, 1944, often referred to as D-Day. The prolific day in history was the starting point for the liberation of Nazi-occupied Europe during World War II. Did you know that D-Day was the largest joint military operation ever undertaken?
