2020 Teen Summer Reading: Team Read
Monday, June 29 - Friday, August 21
Thank you for joining us in our 2020 summer reading adventure! Our theme for 2021 will be "Tales & Tails," featuring animals and more!
Things to do this summer:
- Enjoy the sun
- Eat ice cream
- Compete in a Battle of the Books:
- Team Dragon for adventurous and daring heroes.
- Team Pegasus for hard working and loyal friends.
- Team Sphinx for clever and creative thinkers.
- Team Centaur for ambitious and resourceful leaders.
Read all summer to earn points for your team and find tons of opportunities for your imagination. Every minute you read this summer will be worth a point towards your team's running total. Points will be added together from 3 other South Shore libraries each week! Compete with (and against) teens from Stoughton Public Library, Thayer Public Library (Braintree), and Tufts Weymouth Public Library.
This summer has another a twist, though... you've been trapped in an Enchanted Forest! There are fairies, dragons, genies, kings and queens, monsters, and more ahead of you. In order to make your way out of the forest, you'll need wits, bravery, clear thinking, and a good sense of humor. Complete activities and earn badges to get closer to escape the forest.
Imagine Your Own Adventure!

And the winner is... Team Sphinx! Congratulations!
