Wednesday, September 10th will be all about junk journaling—a group favourite that will set the intention for your school year and give you some visual goals.
No need to register or bring anything except an open mind and willingness to accept everyone into the group. We are inclusive and supportive, so even if group activities aren’t your favourite, you’ll find something to enjoy in this fun session.

Reading Dragon Party
2025-09-10 18:00 - 19:30 | Carleton Place Public Library, 101 Beckwith Street, Carleton Place, Ontario, Canada
We are launching our first ever Reading Dragons program at the Carleton Place Public Library! Join us to help promote reading for kids of all ages and build your own collection of mythical creature cards!
Join us on Wednesday, September 10th, 2025, at 6:00 PM for a Dragon Party and the official launch of the program! There will be games, activities, prizes, and more!
How does Reading Dragons and Friends work?
Reading Dragons and Friends are collectible playable cards featuring mythical creatures like dragons, unicorns, griffins, and more.
Children track the time they spend reading in 30-minute increments to earn cards – using their reading tracker to track the time spent reading. After completing four 30-minute reading periods, they can come to the library to collect a family of Reading Dragons and Friends.
Anyone can collect up to four dragon families a month but can only collect a maximum of two dragon families per visit to the library.
How do we start?
If you are unable to attend our Dragon Party launch event on September 10th, you can start collecting Reading Dragons and Friends cards by asking about the program at the front desk!
Reading Dragons and Friends is a reading incentive program developed the Dover Public Library in 2019 – it is used by over 400 libraries across the globe and has helped foster a love for reading in thousands of children worldwide.
