Come “Check Us Out!”
There are LOTS of new books on the shelves that we can’t wait to check out to you. Come in and see us, check out a few things, and help us reach our goal!
1,000 Books Before Kindergarten
We officially have our youngest participant for our 1,000 Books Before Kindergarten program! Little Alyssa is only 19 days old and her mom just signed her up to start her reading journey with us. 📚❤️
It’s never too early to begin reading to your child! The most benefit towards their literacy is between birth and 3 years old. It may not seem like they are listening as an infant, or they may seem too distracted and not sit still as a toddler but those years are so important for their development!
Any child not yet enrolled in Kindergarten is eligible to participate in this program, come register them soon!
