Share the Love of Reading, a very beneficial lifelong habit. Take the Early Reading Challenge! Adults are to read and record 100 books in a three month time frame to a child less than five years of age.  Books for kids are fun for adults.  They have great pictures and provide opportunities to share family values.  Let your child’s imagination soar.  Read early and often.  By taking the early reading challenge, children you care for will start learning the skills they need to read and write from birth.  Provide a literacy rich environment and read to them every day!
