Try Your Hand at Tic Tac Taylor! – Did you know that Taylor Swift has an extensive reading list, and many of her songs and albums have drawn inspiration from her favorite books? Now’s your chance to read along! Starting on September 30, 2024, stop by the Killingworth Library and pick up a Tic Tac Taylor card – game boards are available for children, tweens, teens, and adults. Complete a row of reading and return your card by December 11, 2024 to be entered into a prize drawing to be held on December 13, 2024 (Taylor Swift’s 35th birthday). PDF copies of the game boards also will be available on the library’s website: killingworthlibrary.org.
