Drop Everything and Read (D.E.A.R.) Day! In-Person

On this day we celebrate the birthday of author Beverly Cleary and her Ramona & Beezus books!

The concept of “Drop Everything and Read” is referenced in the second chapter of Ramona Quimby, Age 8, and Ramona is the campaign spokesperson. On this day, families are encouraged to take at least 30 minutes to put aside all distractions and enjoy books together. 

Come read, find new books, and do some themed activites with us at the library!
