Dubuque County Reads
Youth Programming
Dubuque County Reads for Kids makes reading fun and interactive! Children and families can explore this year’s featured book through hands-on activities, storytimes, and creative projects. Our goal is to nurture a love of reading while building connections across the community—because big ideas start with little readers.
2026 Program: Attend a story time event at a participating library to receive a Free Copy* of Berry Song by Michaela Goade. All DCR programs are free and open to the public. *While supplies last.
Caldecott Medalist Michaela Goade's first self-authored picture book is a gorgeous celebration of the land she knows well and the powerful wisdom of elders.
