Teens are invited to stop by the Parma Heights Library for this month's Teen Book Box, a kit that provides a book and envelopes that enhance the reading experience. This is a take-home activity.

Each edition of the Teen Book Box will feature a newly selected title. This edition's title is When I Was the Greatest by Jason Reynolds. Teens will check out the Teen Book Box, which will include a copy of the book, and several envelopes that contain objects or activities related to the book. Teens will be able to keep everything in the box, except the book, and the survey. 

Limit one per teen, while supplies last. Teen Book Boxes can only be picked up at the Parma Heights Branch and we ask that they also be returned to the Parma Heights Library. Since quantities are limited, Teen Book Boxes cannot be put on hold. 

Sponsored by the Friends of the Parma Heights Library.
