All your summer fun is just around the corner...and we can barely wait!
The Junior Department at Tiffin-Seneca Public Library has been planning since winter and now it is finally time! The Junior Library is kicking off its summer reading program, “Dream Big - Read” on Friday, June 1, 2012.
The summer reading program includes eight weeks of reading (with no book reports!), prizes, and special programs. Students entering sixth grade through grade twelve are welcome to join in the fun.

Just for Kids...
This week's Advertiser-Tribune letter from the Junior Library
Dear Readers,
“The Bridge to Never Land” by Dave Barry and Ridley Pearson is available to read at Tiffin-Seneca Public Library. Aidan and Sarah Cooper discover a mysterious coded document in an antique English desk. Something about the document reminds Sarah about a series of books she has read-the Starcatcher series about the origin of Peter Pan.
Sarah and her brother follow clues that leas them to leave home and find a college professor in the physics department named J. D. Aster. Aidan notices the professor’s last name is the same as the Starcatchers in “Peter and the Starcatchers.”
Have you visited Disneyland? Do you remember a Peter Pan ride? The ride is a key part of the story for Sarah, Aidan, the professor and Peter. The last chapter seems to be a promise of more adventures in a series connecting modern day story characters with Peter Pan.
The Starcatcher series by Dave Barry is shelved in the Junior Fiction area. The series make a great family read.
