Read to Feed!

Our library is filled with families who love to read. They're checking out the books on our summer reading shelves; they're checking in with librarians to track the time they've spent reading.





Will we reach our reading goal of 3,000 hours by August 19th? If so, we will donate an animal of your choice to Heifer International! Heifer International is a charity that helps poor farmers in the developing world to end hunger and poverty.






This year, our summer readers get to vote on whether the Watertown Free Public Library should donate a llama or a sheep. So far, the sheep is winning! Will the sheep maintain the lead? That's up to you. Every hour added to your summer reading log earns you another chance to vote. 




Come to our Wrap-Up Party on August 19th to see the results! We will have cake and a special performance by Jungle Jim.
