AURORA – State Senator Linda Holmes announced the launch of her Summer Book Club designed to encourage young readers in the 42nd Senate District to read over summer break.
“Reading skills aren’t just for academic work at school, they help students expand their vocabulary and learn about sports, art, music, or any other thing they’re curious about or participate in,” said Holmes (D-Aurora). “I hope students will pick up a book and enjoy being transported to another world and new perspectives.”
To participate in the Summer Book Club, students must read eight books of their choice during the summer break, record the names of the books on a form and return the form to Holmes’ office by Aug. 18. Each student who completes the Summer Book Club will receive a gift card for a sweet treat.
