Summer often means it is time for a road trip! The last thing you want to hear is ‘I’m bored!’ or ‘Are we there yet?’. So come to the library and check out books, audio books, or launch pads to keep them occupied for the duration. Or maybe you are not going anywhere – travel along with the characters in the book. Remember you can use your library card to check out e-books in one of our many digital apps, like Hoopla, Boundless, and Tumblebooks. They will never run out of things to read!
