Black Hills Reads Resources
Book Stop Activity Guides
Black Hills Reads works with CAT Scratch Studios to create Book Stop Activity Guides that accompany Imagination Library and other popular children’s books each year. These Book Stops include activity ideas based on the SD Early Learning Guidelines and are free resources for parents to use with their children while reading a book. So far, we have developed Book Stop Resource Guides for 22 different books! Each Book Stop features information about the book, discussion ideas, and activities.

Summer Reading in the Black Hills
Prevent the summer slide and keep your kids motivated to read all summer long by participating in a Summer Reading Program! With tons of fun activities, events, and prizes to be won, participating in a summer reading program is a great way to encourage young kiddos to gain and improve reading skills throughout the summer. Check out our Summer Reading Program page to learn more about reading programs that are being hosted by libraries throughout the Black Hills this summer.
