Summer Reading Program Incentives

Level Up at Your Library, this year’s summer reading program, has started at Litchfield Library! Kids can pick out a free book to keep when they sign up, thanks to help from the Friends of the Litchfield Library. When kids complete reading sheets, they get library loot that they can use to “buy” prizes!
