1,000 Books Before Kindergarten is Turning One!
1,000 Books Before Kindergarten is an early literacy initiative to help prepare kids for kindergarten. We have a great program that is simple and achievable - all you have to do is come into the library to sign-up and we'll get you started.
You have until September 30 of your child's kindergarten year to complete the program. Prizes are awarded after completing 100, 500, and 1,000 books. Once your child completes the program, we will present them with a certificate and their name will go on our "1,000 Books Before Kindergarten" board in our children's area.
This is a free program and is open to everyone, no matter what community you live in.
