Winter Reading & Pass the Book!

4th - 8th Graders:
Only 4th-8th Graders in the state of Illinois get to vote the Rebecca Caudill Young Readers Book Award!!! Let your opinion be heard.

Print your 4th-8th "BINGO card" or stop by the library to pick one up.
It's EASY:
  1. Read at least 3 of the 20 books on the list. NOTE: You don't have to get a "BINGO."
  2. Attend booktalk sessions on February 2 & February 9 at 3:15-4:45pm (OPTIONAL).

  3. Turn in your BINGO card at the library before February 22nd after you have read at least 3 books.
  4. Attend the Official Voting Day/Pizza Party on Thursday, February 23, 2012(Must have read at least 3 of the books and turn in completed BINGO sheet to vote and attend pizza party).
Pass the Book:
4th-8th graders may also pick up one of our specially marked copies of "Every Soul a Star" to read, register, and "pass the book" to a friend or family member. Every Soul a Star is a Rebecca Caudil book and counts towards the Voting/Pizza Party. Instructions are included inside each book.

9th - 12th Graders:
It's simple -
  • Print out the 9th-12th Bingo Sheet or pick one up at the library.
  • Complete one BINGO by reading the type of book or doing the action that is listed in each box.
  • Turn in your completed BINGO sheet before 5:00 P.M. on February 24th for your choice of a book from a selection of current titles. Turn your card in early for the best selection!
If you want to complete more than one BINGO on the sheet, that's great! However, there are no additional prizes for completing more than one BINGO. HAVE FUN!!!

LOTS to Report!

There has been lots going on for teens at the library recently...

The "Night at the Library II" was well attended and enjoyed. There were 11 teens in attendance for a fun night of gaming, snacking, dancing, singing and balloon popping! Check out our Facebook page to see photos from the event.

Starting January 3rd, 6-8th graders and 9-12th graders can "Read to BINGO!" with the library's Winter Reading Program. You can get more information and print your own bingo card off the library's website, www.lmelibrary.org. If you complete a bingo by January 28th you will receive a prize...(6-8th can win a ticket to a Peoria Chiefs game; 9-12th can choose a new book or Playaway from our prize shelf)
