Summer Reading

This summer, Corban was very excited to participate in our local library's summer reading program and it was great incentive to continue practicing reading.  At the library he was able to add an entry for each book he read over the summer.
Wednesday, there was an ice cream party to celebrate with a raffle for the prizes. Because Corban was 5 at the beginning of the summer his name was originally pulled out for a prize as one of the younger readers.  But if Corban chose the younger prize he would not get a chance to later choose from the older prizes.  Corban has been carefully eying every prize on the table, every time that we went to the library this summer (almost weekly), and he knew what he wanted.  So he said he would rather take his chances (the risk of his name not being pulled again) and just 2 names later Corban got to pick his prize as reward for his summer reading!  Corban chose this "very cool" superhero car track set!
