As the school year comes to a close State Senator Doris Turner is announcing the return of her annual summer reading programs for kids in the 48th district.
The Summer Book Club requires students to read eight books of their choice during the summer break, record the names of the books on a form, and return the form to Turner’s Springfield, Decatur or Capitol office by Aug. 14.
Every child who completes the Summer Book Club will receive a gift card and a certificate from Senator Turner.
