While Norah was enjoying the traveling touch tank exhibit at the library, I signed her up for the library's summer reading program. She listened to the librarian's explanation of the reading program and expressed a lot of excitement over seeing how many hours she could spend reading.

For the first five hours of reading to herself (or being read to), she gets a small prize and an entry to win the bigger prizes. So, she came home the first day and read for two and a half hours! No kidding! I kept track of the timer myself and it's even hard for me to believe. So, I worry that the librarians will think I am exaggerated her time when we go in with a full five hours in just a few days.
