This manual was created for the 2002 Texas Reading Club, a program of the Texas State Library and Archives Commission. The theme, "Read Across Texas!" invites children to explore the history, geography, and culture of Texas through the portal of books and their local libraries. The purpose of this manual is to assist library staff who serve youth by suggesting ideas for programs that will attract children to the library. The programs in each chapter of this manual feature a combination of the following components: books to share, show, and booktalk; bulletin boards, displays, and decorations; fingerplays, rhymes, poems, and songs; riddles, and jokes; crafts, games, and activities; guest speakers; musical recordings, videos, Web sites, and CD-ROMs; and reader's theater scripts, puppet shows, stories, or citations to books in which they may be located. The manual begins with a "Texas Hoe Down" to kick- off the Texas Reading Club and a "Rodeo Roundup" to celebrate its completion. The suggested bulletin boards in these programs are based on the clip art in the back of this manual. The Toddler and Preschool Program chapters have suggestions for programs specifically designed for youth in those age groups and include a wealth of original songs and fingerplays. The Elementary Programs chapter suggests many books, crafts, activities, and other programming ideas that will appeal to school age children. All of the chapters have similar formats, with the exception of the Young Adult Programs chapter, which uniquely addresses the interests of that age group. The Young Adult chapter outlines a separate reading club on the theme "Travel Quest!" as well as many programming ideas. Bibliographic information for titles in all chapters and in all formats is compiled at the end of the manual, divided into sections for books, videos, audio recordings, and CD-ROMs. Information on marketing, cooperation and public relations; cooperation with schools; and serving children with disabilities is also provided.(AEF) Reproductions supplied by EDRS are the best that can be made from the original document.
