Book a Voyage to Cook Island!

Ahoy there, sailors! Don't end up marooned in the city this summer! Book a Voyage to Cook Island where salty tales, buried treasure, enchantment under the sea, and make-believe will keep you entertained for hours. Let your imagination transport you to the wonderful world of daring pirates, lush South Sea Islands, gently swaying palm trees, sparkling white sand beaches, and crystal blue waters teeming with exotic sea animals. Set sail for adventure with Captain Cook's Crew and the Children's Department! Travelers of all ages, from birth on up, are welcome. Join the Cook Memorial Public Library District for a summer full of reading, listening, and viewing fun.

Octopi your summer with great books! Children, from birth to Grade 6 (entering Fall 2006), are invited to join the Cook Castaways Reading Club and experience the adventures that books can provide. Book your voyage and sign on as a Book-aneer Baby (birth to 23 months), a Stowaway (age 2 to entering 2nd grade), or a Survivor (entering grades 3 and above.) Our ship sets sail for Cook Island, beginning Monday, June 5, 2006.

Cast off for summer with exciting entertainment, storytimes, preschool and school-age programs, Crow's Nest Crafts, and much more!
