Summer Reading Challenge Underway With ‘LA Dreaming’ Theme

By SARAH SHMERLING | Editor-in-Chief

The 2024 Summer Reading Challenge is now underway, and children, teenagers and adults are all invited to participate.

The challenge runs from June 10 to August 10 with a theme of “LA Dreaming.” Throughout the contest, participants will earn badges for reading and completing learning-based activities: Reading for one hour or completing one activity earns one badge.

Those who want to participate can sign up at lapl.org/summer or register in person at the Reference Desk at Palisades Branch Library. Earn 10 badges to be entered into branch and grand prize drawings, including gift cards, museum memberships and a new Apple iPad.

“All participants receive a canvas library tote bag and a free book (while supplies last),” read information provided by Palisades Branch Library. “Come soon—the bags go quickly.”
