Pleasanton Library and Recreation Department will kick off its annual free Summer Reading Program on Saturday (May 29) as school summer vacation begins. The program will continue the successful virtual elements of last summer and add special new features for all ages.
This year s theme, Reading Colors your World, provides a context for exploring humanity, nature, culture and science, as well as programs that demonstrate how libraries and reading can expand one s world through kindness, growth and community.
New elements of the program encourage participants to find beauty in diversity, including reading books by Black authors like Octavia Butler, Maya Angelou and Ta-Nehisi Coates, or learning about the Ohlone and completing an activity badge by visiting Alviso Adobe Community Park.
