Pow Wow With Books At The Walkerton Library This summer the Walkerton Public Library will be featuring Pow Wow With Books as its theme for summer reading. Pizza Hut will be helping to sponsor this program by donating one free personal pan pizza for children who read five books. After reading 10 books the children will receive a Pow Wow With Books sticker and bookmark. If a child reads 15 books they will get an Indian headband complete with feather, and if they finish the program by reading 20 books they will be awarded a certificate. Many of the children read more than the 20 required books and they will receive an Indian necklace with one large bead (signifying that they have read 20 books). After that for each book they read they will get one more bead for the necklace. Summer reading is for children ages 3 and up. There are two groups of readers — The Read-To-Me Gub and the Reader's Gub. The first is for children grades 2 and below. The Reader's Gub is for those children in grades 3 and up. To sign up all the children have to do is pick up a sign up sheet from the library. Each time they read five books they can bring the sheet in with the book titles written on it. There is also a list of rules and prizes that can be picked up from the library. Besides summer reading the library will also be featuring various movies and programs for the children. Most shows will begin on Fridays at the library at 2:30p.m. On June 12, 101 Daimations will be shown. A list of all this and the other activities can be picked up at
