Pokémon trainers, get ready to power up your reading skills. The San Bernardino County Library is inviting readers of all ages to embark on a month-long Pokémon adventure with Read to Catch ’Em All — a reading challenge that rewards participants for checking out library items while adding a spark of Pokémon fun to your library visits.
Through Feb. 28, participants who check out 30 items will receive a Pokéball with a mystery Pokémon character inside — a surprise for every aspiring Pokémon Master. Supplies are limited, so don’t wait too long to catch yours.
Trainers who reach their checkout goal will also earn an opportunity drawing ticket for a chance to win a giant plush Pokémon. Plush prizes vary by branch.
“Whether you’re a Pikachu fan or a Charmander enthusiast, this program sparks excitement for reading while letting kids and families experience the thrill of a Pokémon adventure,” said County Library Program Coordinator Elizabeth Williams. “We can’t wait to see our readers level up their skills and catch some fun along the way.”
