About the program
The TD Summer Reading Club is Canada’s biggest, bilingual summer reading program for kids of all ages, interests and abilities. This free Club is offered at more than 2,000 public libraries across Canada, as well as online. The Club celebrates Canadian authors, illustrators and stories, and inspires kids to explore the fun of reading their way. This is key to building a lifelong love of reading.
Check with your local public library to see when in-person registration opens—it varies slightly by location but is usually in mid- to late-June. Your child will receive a free notebook and stickers to track their reading. Your library may also have fun activities and initiatives for kids to take part in.
The TD Summer Reading Club website launches on June 13, 2022. Kids can:
- Create an online notebook
- Read ebooks
- Vote in the Battle of the Books
- Review books
- Participate in weekly trivia
- Write stories
- Read and write jokes
- Read an original web comic
- View author/illustrator readings and workshops
- Print colouring sheets
- Find the perfect book
There’s something for everyone, including kids with print disabilities, and preschoolers and their families.
Testimonials
“It’s a great way to read a whole lot more, and discover Canadian authors and literature.”
“I honestly love the Club a lot because it really helped me with my reading skills and actually encouraged me to read more, and now my vocabulary is growing by reading!”
“I have been doing the TD Summer Reading Club for as many summers as I can remember. I started with my mother reading picture books to me, and now I am doing it independently. I always look forward to the reading club every summer.”
We're proud to be a part of summer programming in these public libraries across Canada
