The Scroll & Pen Book Store on our Lincroft main campus is inviting young readers to enjoy several free summer reading events planned just for them.

These programs are appropriate for ages 7-12, with siblings of all ages also welcome. Parents may participate in the activities or relax and enjoy the café and lounge during the program.

“We really want to encourage kids to have fun reading! Together we will be reading excerpts from the selected books, followed by two fun and exciting activities,” said Megan Andrews, program coordinator. 

“While the books are available for purchase, is it not necessary to do so.”

The American Girl: Summer Series invites girls to bring their favorite American Girl doll and a copy of the book to follow along. The reading level for this series is for 4th through 6th grades. Program dates* are:

A Marie-Grace Mystery: The Hidden Gold on July 11 from 4-5 pm
A Rebecca Mystery: The Crystal Ball on July 25 from 4-5pm
A Cecile Mystery: The Cameo Necklace on August 8 from 4-5pm

*Sign up in advance to ensure your child’s free American Girl gift.

The Name of this Book is Secret Summer Series is appropriate for 3rd through 6th grade readers. If your child has a copy of the book, he or she is encouraged to bring it along.
