Looking for a fun way to get kids outside and reading this summer?

​​

Read books to help Farmer Rita finish her field notes before summer's over!

​ ​

Each page of Farmer Rita's Field Notes contains 2 book options, which can all be found in the Manatee County Public Library System and as read-alouds on YouTube.

 

​The rules are simple: 

1. Pick 1 book from each page.

​

2. Read it.

​

3. Do each page's "Field Notes" activity.

​

​Turn your completed booklet into the Ag Museum by August 16, 2025 to win a prize!

Each Friday in June and July, we’ll post one page of Farmer Rita's Field Notes on our Facebook page to help keep you on track. You can start your field notes at any time!
