YOUTH PROGRAMS
1,000 Books Before Kindergarten *
Help your child get ready to read with our 1,000 Books Before Kindergarten program. Sharing books with your child is the best way to get them ready to read! Read a book to your child and color in a leaf on the reading log. For
every 100 books read, your child will receive a prize, but the real reward is time spent with loving adults.
