Library Notes for May 2, 2018
May is Get Caught Reading Month! Share the joy of getting lost in a good book with your children. It’s a gift that will last a lifetime! The best way to raise an avid reader is to be an avid reader. Next time your kids are reading for school or for pleasure, put down your phone and pick up a book. Talk to your kids about the books you read and make talking about books part of your go-to conversation topics.
