2008 Texas Reading Club
Texas Reading Club Jubilee: 1958-2008!
The theme of the 2008 Texas Reading Club is Texas Reading Club Jubilee: 1958-2008! and the books and activities provided in this manual invite children to explore the marvelous cultural heritage of our state and country. Texas librarians translated this theme into Spanish also: Texas Reading Club Jubilee: 1958-2008! Celebrando 50 años. The theme encourages librarians to celebrate 50 years of summer reading by hosting programs that include children’s books, music and dance, toys and games, food, activities, and films from the past five decades.
