Details:
The Mayor's Summer Reading Club (MSRC) is an initiative aimed at promoting literacy and preventing the summer reading slump for children ages birth to five and their families. Each year, the program selects a city-wide book, with Summer 2026 featuring "Dinosaur!" by Olivia Aston Bosworth, which appeals to young dinosaur enthusiasts. Partnering with organizations like Fulton County Library, the MSRC distributes copies of the book at no cost, providing both English and Spanish versions while supplies last. Additionally, the program includes engaging storytime sessions for babies (birth-24 months) that foster early literacy through gentle stories, songs, rhymes, and movement, as well as more general storytime activities hosted by Mr. White, which feature singing, stories, and crafts.
