TD Summer Reading Club

The TD Summer Reading Club is Canada’s largest summer reading program for kids of all ages, interests and abilities. This free Club is offered at more than 2,000 public libraries across Canada and celebrates Canadian authors, illustrators and stories, while inspiring kids to explore the joys of reading in their own way. This is the key to building a lifelong love of reading. Studies show that reading throughout the summer prevents the "summer slide" of reading skills that happens naturally to students who don't continue to read over the summer school break. In addition, everyone who is registered through the library will receive weekly incentive prizes!
