We’re kicking off the 2014 TD Summer Reading Club on June 28 with national StoryMobs!  Join kids and other families from six provinces across Canada for a one-day-only national public library event.

What is a StoryMob?

Kids and families assemble and combine great children’s books, flash mobs, costumes and props, music, dancing and reading out loud. It’s a fun and exciting way to engage with books, stories and your community.
