Nov. 19th is Family Literacy Night

November is Family Literacy Month and Nov. 19th is Family Reading Night. It’s a great excuse to turn off the electronics, sit together as a family, and read. There’s nothing like a good book to stimulate your child’s imagination and open up a whole new world for them.

 

Here are a few local library events to get your kids focused on reading.
