Summer Reading 2022 @ El Paso Public Library

Check it out! This one's to motivate our participants to make time for reading. Also extending the opportunity to any of our incoming 6th graders and other Canyon Hills Middle School Cobras. During the first week of school, for students that submit their certificate of completion for their reading goals we'll have a prize raffle with your name in it. Don't let the summer pass you by without making some time for reading. Here's an active link include in the flier to elpasolibrary.beanstack.com. You can also register in-person at branch libraries.

My Name is Tani


My Name is Tani

"I say to myself that I never lose, that I only learn because when you lose, you have to make a mistake to lose that game. So you learn from that mistake, and so you learn. So losing is a way of winning for yourself."

Need something to read for the summer? You can check out the nonfiction book titled My Name is Tani, and I Believe in Miracles, The Amazing True Story of One Boy's Journey from Refugee to Chess Champion. The text is available at the El Paso Public Library's Chamizal Express and at the Dorris Van Doren Branch. Register for the El Paso Public Library's Summer Reading Club 2022 click here.
