Last week Tharpo the pirate visited Chico Library’s summer reading program. Library Director Michelle Slonaker said he entertained guests with silly antics, juggling and magic tricks.
Above, Cassie Byers, Taryn Lunsford and Jessica Byers assist Tharpo with with one of his tricks. Of course, kids also turned in their reading logs for prizes and checked out more books.
Which summer reading program are you going to visit this week?

I just joined Goodreads a few weeks ago, and I feel a little overwhelmed. There’s a lot to explore, and I’m not sure where to start. Who else out there uses Goodreads? What features do you recommend?
I felt compelled to begin listing every book I’ve ever read, but I decided to start my list with the book I’m reading right now. Otherwise, it would turn into a chore, and the purpose of this is “fun.”
I’m hoping to explore the site more in the weeks ahead, but in the meantime, tell me about your favorite features.
