The Book Box at Edgewater Park Beach

What's better than a beach read?  A library at the beach stocked with great reads!  The Book Box at Edgewater Park offers books, DVDs, CDs, and other library materials. Enjoy your favorite finds at the beach. Or tuck them away to enjoy them at home. You can even return items you've checked out from the library and sign up for a library card.

The Book Box hosts plenty of fun, FREE activities and crafts for kids (and the inner kid hiding inside most adults), along with FREE special events, activities, and programs like presented by the Cleveland Public Library and community partners including the Cleveland MetroParks, WVIZ Ideastream, Ohio Sea Grant and Stone Laboratory School of Environment and Natural Resources, and more. 

Here are a few highlights, but you may also find surprise, pop-up activities and events at any time, so visit often and make this a Book Box at Edgewater summer for your whole family! 

SPLASH INTO STORIES: Hourly, during rest periods, enjoy fun stories and learn important water safety lessons taught by lifeguards and park rangers.
