Prepare to Get Outdoors with Summer Wonder
This year, KDL will take you on a Summer Wonder journey of reading, learning and exploring through the great outdoors right here in Kent County! We are partnering with Kent County Parks to bring you some exciting new elements and activities to participate in over the summer. Enjoy activities for the whole family, including outdoor scavenger hunts, park exploration and more. There will also be many of the tried-and-true elements that make KDL's Summer Wonder program so great - reading incentives, awesome programming, access to books and other library materials, fun reading goals for all ages... and it's all FREE!

We thank our donors for advancing literacy in the communities we serve and helping make Summer Wonder a great success!
