Supporters for the local program include the Georgia Public Library Service and Cobb Library Foundation.
For this celebration of summer reading, everyone is encouraged to wear animal costumes “and plan to be engaged in the festive atmosphere,” the statement added.
“Each of the four kickoff events will be unique,” said Community Engagement Manager Mary Wood of Cobb County Public Library in a statement, adding they will be “fun family events.”
