Prepare yourself for the fantastic summer reading programs at the San Diego Public Library! While kids are enjoying their break from school, it doesn't mean they should stop reading—adults are encouraged to join in too. This is the perfect opportunity to head to the Mountain View/Beckwourth Branch Library, pick out books that seem exciting and engaging, and earn rewards for achieving different goals. Additionally, any form of reading can help combat the summer slide, where everyone can have fun and earn prizes while diving into books!
