Augusta Public Library was recently selected for a Building Wisconsin Readers grant. This grant, offered by the state of Wisconsin, is going to focus on early literacy opportunities for children before they start Kindergarten.
What does this mean for you?
This means that the library will implement a free 1000 Books Before Kindergarten program, called Building Readers!
Building Readers will encourage you to read 1000 books before he or she enters school. This goal is entirely manageable! If you read one book a day for three years, that adds up to be 1095 books!
One of the best ways to encourage learning is to spend time sharing books every day. Reading together helps develop important pre-reading skills that provide a solid reading foundation. Plus, sharing stories is fun!
The program starts Tuesday, September 3!
