71st District students in kindergarten through 5th grade still have time to join my summer reading program, Read All About It: America 250!
Students who read eight books during their summer break will receive an official Illinois House of Representatives certificate and an invitation to an ice cream party at the end of the summer. But because we are celebrating our country’s 250th birthday this summer, there will be a special additional prize for any student who reads at least one book about American history as part of their summer reading.
Click here for the official rules and an entry form. You can also pick up entry forms at any 71st District library. The program ends on July 31, so there is still plenty of time to get started.
Readers make leaders!
