VRP promotes the joy and importance of reading and a love for the library for the entire family—babies, children, teens and adults. This year, it will run from Saturday, May 25 through Wednesday, July 31; and to get started with a bang, the Library is having three kick-off programs that will include storytelling, music, crafts and photos as well as an opportunity to sign up for VRP. The kick-offs are: 10:00 a.m. Thursday, May 30 at the Stonecrest Library (/branches/stonecrest.html) 3:00 p.m. Thursday, May 30 at the Tucker-Reid H. Cofer Library (/branches/tucker.html) 10:00 a.m. Saturday, June 1 at the Decatur Library (/branches/decatur.html) text/html 2013-04-09T16:44:18+01:00 http://www.dekalblibrary.org http://www.dekalblibrary.org/newsflashes/pete-the-cat.html
