Grow a Reader Special: Firefighters to the Rescue!
What is the Grow a Reader Program?
The Grow a Reader program is specifically designed for children ages 0 to 5. Our librarians lead engaging classes and storytimes that focus on building the foundational reading and literacy skills essential for kindergarten success.
Building Skills for Growing Readers
Support your child's journey toward literacy with our library staff's collection of blogs, which offer practical tips on building essential reading, talking, and writing skills.
Classes & Storytimes
Specially trained youth services staff present stories, songs, and activities during weekly storytimes that lay the foundation your child needs to get ready to read.
1,000 Books Before Kindergarten
The 1,000 Books Before Kindergarten program, created by the 1,000 Books Foundation, encourages caregivers to read any 1,000 books to their children before they enter kindergarten to help build foundational literacy skills.
