Read, Renew, Repeat - Summer Reading Program

Read every day this summer to earn incentives at the Atsugi MWR library!

Kids and teens (ages 5-18) can feed their hunger for learning by reading FIVE chapter books, and receive a FREE Parcheezi's Personal Pizza!

Pick up a "Pages for Pizza" bookmark from Atsugi Library.
Each time you complete a chapter book, report it to a Library staff member and receive a pizza sticker to place on your bookmark, and help track the number of books read.
After you report the fifth book read, you'll receive a coupon for a FREE Parcheezi's Personal Pizza.
Read and repeat every quarter. Visit or contact the Atsugi Library for full details.
