Super Story Party 2026!
Get ready to roar! Calling all young readers and dinosaur-lovers: Join the New York State Library for the first-ever Super Story Party!
Celebrate the love of reading and explore this year’s Summer Reading theme of Unearth a Story. Enjoy a rollicking good time as kids can uncover hidden histories and explore the paleontological past. Each family will leave with information and materials to connect with this year’s Summer Reading Program and support literacy learning at home.
