A cup of curiosity, six ounces of imagination, and a generous amount of fun. Whether in the kitchen or at their local library, Cookie knows how to whip up a good time. Their favorite recipes include hearty summer salads, fruit cups with chamoy, and anything with chocolate chips.  The heat of a roaring oven can sometimes cause them to sweat just a little, but one thing is certain: this tough Cookie never crumbles.

The only time Inky feels sad is when they're not reading their favorite graphic novel. Bad day? No worries, they'll pop open "The Mighty Onion" and lose themselves in the pages. Weekend plans cancelled? Perfect, now they can cozy under the sheets and read their favorite Gravity Falls Mystery Journal. If there's one thing Inky knows best, it's how to pick the perfect graphic novel and this summer of reading is going to be their best one yet!

Two-Ten-Sicle lives and breathes San Antonio. Their favorite place is the Central Library. Ever wonder where they shot scenes of the 1997 Selena movie? Two-Ten-Sicle will take you on a tour that ends where you can check out books and CD's on Selena that will make you feel "muy... excited!"  Two-Ten-Sicle loves immersing themselves in the culture and spends hours at their library reading stories that inspire them and fill them with hope.

Fascinated by how insects crawl, fly, and buzz, Prickle spends each day sketching dragonflies and making paths for ants. What could be better than becoming an entomologist and uncovering mysteries in the tiniest creatures? Prickle loves it when bugs swoop by—it feels like a friendly high-five or a tiny hug. When a curious ant explores their lime-green swirl, they stay very still, careful not to disturb any buggy buddies. It feels like nature’s way of saying, “We like you too!”

A flash of light streaked across the sky as Nebula sat outside the library reading their book. A strange signal blinked through the library’s telescope, too precise to be random. Could it be a message from deep space?

Nebula jumped right out of their seat with excitement. They had read every book on aliens they could find and now it was their chance to uncover the truth! With a flick of their cosmic jetpack, they soared toward the sky. The mystery awaited, and only Nebula could solve it!
