Children from birth to grade five are invited to participate in the Peabody Township Library summer reading program, which begins at 10 a.m. Thursday.

The hour-long reading and activity period, called “Fizz! Boooom!! Read!!!,” will be each Thursday morning through June 26. The program includes story time, activities and games, and a time to check out books.

Instructors are Patti Traxson for birth to pre-kindergarten children, Michele Gossen for pre-kindergarten and kindergarten children, and Lori Gillet and Brenda Riggs dividing first through fifth grade students.

“We also would love to have some older students volunteer to come help,” librarian Rodger Charles said.

To enroll a child or to volunteer to help with the program, contact Charles at the library, (620) 983-2502.
