DAVENPORT, IOWA (September 24, 2021) — The Davenport Public Library invites the media to attend a Library Shopping Spree with the 2021 Summer Reading Teen Grand Prize Winner, Megan Sterbenz! Megan will be visiting Barnes and Noble at Northpark Mall with Library staff in order to choose $500 of books to be included in the Library's Young Adult Collection, and $50 to spend on herself as part of a prize called the Great Library Shopping Haul.

The shopping spree will take place on Monday, September 27, 5PM, and will be a great opportunity to learn about what teens are reading and how they like to contribute to their communities. Please contact Youth Services and Programming Librarian Amber Carlson, acarlson@davenportlibrary.com, with any questions.

For the 2021 Summer Reading Program: Reading Colors Your World, the Davenport Public Library gave out a total of 51 grand prizes for all ages. This included five grand prizes specifically for Teens and chosen by the members of the Teen Advisory Board.
