Summer reading heats up

COEUR d'ALENE - Summer Reading for teens at the Coeur d'Alene Public Library continues through August and will include a special day for Doctor Who fans.

The Teen Summer Reading Program is in full swing. Teens ages 13 to 18 can pick up a reading log from any desk in the library, or can fill out a log online. Teens earn one raffle ticket for every hour of reading they complete and submit. There are weekly prize drawings, as well as a grand prize drawing of a Kindle Fire HDX for all teens that complete 25 or more hours of reading during the summer. The deadline to turn in reading time is Aug. 31.

All children and teens who participate in Summer Reading at the Coeur d'Alene library can have their overdue fines forgiven.

"Doctor Who" returns to BBC America with Series 8 on Aug. 23, and the library is gearing up for it with a special dalek-stravaganza of wibbly-wobbly, timey-wimey activities. Join us for games, crafts, trivia, and prizes galore in the Community Room on Aug. 16, 1-4 p.m., for a day of Whovian family fun.
