YES! It’s clear that children who have book rich environment have much higher success in school. The American Academy of Pediatrics says that the importance of reading to children begins at birth. Sadly, there are too many homes without a single book for their baby! We can help you make a difference in your community by turning more families into readers and library users.
By reading to their babies and by becoming regular library users themselves, parents help their babies develop language skills and start them on the path to success in reading and learning.
Organizations such as Friends of the Library groups, Women’s Clubs, and Junior Leagues purchase Books for Babies packets. Groups often supplement the packets with information about local resources, including library locations and contact information as well as details about lapsit and preschool storyhours.
