As an incentive for children to check out more books, the San Diego Central Public Library will be teaming up with the San Diego Zoo to inspire kids to want to deepen their knowledge of animals by reading about them. As they read, they will be gifted different prizes, and then ultimately be gifted with a trip to the zoo, to meet the creatures they have been reading about.
