Reading!
​
All together, let's read our way across New York. When you come to the library and tell us about your reading, you will get one slip for each point.
​
Ages 4 and younger 15 minutes = 1 point
Ages 5 to 12 30 minutes = 1 point
Ages 13 to 17 One book = 1 point
Adults One book = 1 point
​
All the slips will be joined together, with one slip = five miles! The more you read, the faster we get to our destinations: the Catskills, the Statue of Liberty, Niagara Falls. If everyone reads a lot, we might even be able to get back to LaFayette!
