TD Summer Reading Club 2024: To the Stars
Grab your astronaut suit and moon boots and hop aboard our spaceship as we blast off past satellites and asteroids, leaving the Milky Way behind us. Join us as we land on an undiscovered planet and gaze up at never-before-seen star constellations before catching a comet and letting it carry us to galaxy clusters far beyond this world.
When we’re tired from our interstellar travels, we’ll return home to our cozy books and beds where we can gaze out the window to the night sky and contemplate our unique place in this vast and wondrous universe.
The Summer Reading Club program will run from July 1 – August 12, 2024. There are 6 weeks guaranteed to keep your children busy learning, laughing and reading. It is open to participants from preschool to Grade 8.
Registration: opens June 1st on Beanstack
