A fun new reading program at St. Louis Public Library is sure to be a big hit with little Big Foot enthusiasts.

Creature Quest invites readers ages 5-18 to complete reading challenges to earn free collectible cards. After checking off a row of boxes, children will earn a Creature Card. A total of 36 cards will be available through the program, which runs through May 15, 2027.

Each month will feature themed events and a different set of cards. The starter’s set includes Bigfoot, Champ and Mothman. Participants will also be entered into a raffle to win passes to popular St. Louis attractions. Visit the St. Louis Public Library website for more information and to register for this free program.
