MISQUAH — Brynn Solberg has cleared the wolves. The Misquah Public Library’s summer reading program, now three weeks old, has watched its most determined participant exhaust a second entire reading tier, leaving children’s librarian Ruth Aune to contemplate a level the library does not currently offer.

Miss Solberg, who finished fourth grade this spring, blew through the “bear” level before the program officially began and was advanced to “wolves,” which she has now also completed. The next tier up, “eagles,” does not exist; Aune invented the animal ladder in 2003 and, she admits, “never thought anybody would get this far this fast.”

“I’m looking at adding eagles,” Aune said. “Or possibly moose. I haven’t decided what moose would read.” She reiterated her standing request that the rest of the town “pace itself,” noting that the summer is long, the shelves are finite, and “there is still, somehow, a waiting list for the bears.”

Miss Solberg, reached in the nonfiction section, said she was “taking a short break” and then planned to “start the grown-up part,” a prospect Aune called “premature, but hard to argue with.”
