Teen Read Month - Free Programs, Two Contests


Teen Read Month is here, where we celebrate the joys of teen reading! The theme this year is Read Beyond Reality. What does that mean to you?

We want to hear about the books you love that take you out of your world, stretch your imagination, and change your perception of what might be possible. How can you share your favorites?
  • Write book reviews about books you've read that took you beyond your reality, for the chance to win one of our awesome blindingly orange Sno-Isle Teens stocking caps. One will be given away at each of our libraries for that location's Teen Librarian's favorite review.

  • Enter our 6th Annual Art Contest by creating a 2-D art piece that shows how you can Read Beyond Reality. Fantasy, science fiction, supernatural — if you can imagine it, we want to see it.

    Top four entries win a $25 gift card from Amazon.com. Pick up an entry form from your teen librarian (or download it here) and turn in to any Sno-Isle Library by October 31. Must be age 12 to 18 and live in the Sno-Isle service area to enter. Funded by the Sno-Isle Libraries Foundation.

  • Meet up with other teens at our fun Read Beyond Reality events, including fortune tellers, ghost hunters, Oak Harbor’s Zombie Ball, great authors and the Survive the Library after-hours reality TV challenge party in Marysville!
