Do you like puzzles, mysteries, games, brainteasers, or art? Then you won't want to miss Kids Read!, a special winter reading program for kids in grades 4-6 . We are inviting all 4-6th graders in Menasha to read the same book during one four week period.

The book, Chasing Vermeer by Blue Balliett, is the story of two teens who try to solve an international art theft. This Kids Read! program runs Jan. 14 - Feb. 15. There will be read alouds in the classrooms, copies available for checkout at the library, and fun programs including a chance to give your opinion about the book.
