Library School Storytime will meet on Thursday, May 7th from 9-10am. This is a special time set aside for young children to visit the library with an adult caregiver. We will read, sing, and play.

If this time does not work for you, you may be interested in the 1000 Books Before Kindergarten program. You pick up a sheet to cross off numbers as you read books with your child. If your child enjoys reading before bed, and you read their favorite bedtime book more than once, before they fall asleep, you cross off numbers for however many times the book was read. If it's the same book 5 times a day, you mark it off 5 times. The books may be borrowed from the library or from your own home collection.

The sheets have 100 boxes. Once those boxes are filled, stop in the library to get a small prize and pick up another sheet. Once you complete 1000 books, we have a special t-shirt for kids that you can personalize.
