Read and Bead

Read and Bead is the Brownwood Library's Summer Reading Club for kids ages 3 and up*.
How it works:
  • Register at the library
  • Select a brag tag and a necklace or keychain
  • Start reading!
  • Record your minutes
  • Turn your minutes into beads for your chain! ​Log your minutes with the Library either online or by visiting.  Each bead represents different numbers of minutes. We have sparkle beads, glitter beads, glow-in-the-dark beads and beads shaped like animals, footballs, stars and more!
  • When you reach the summer goal (560 minutes) you'll receive a special, limited edition, rocket-ship-shaped brag tag!
  • Keep reading! Even after you reach the goal, you can add beads to your chain!

*Due to small parts and a potential choking hazard, families with young children should use caution with their Summer Reading prizes. For this same reason, children younger than 36 months are not eligible to participate in Read and Bead. However, they are still encouraged to come to the programs and to sign up for the Little Explorer's Club.
