"Ignite children's imagination through books."
"I find television
very educating.
Every time
somebody turns
on the set, I go
into the other room
and read a book."

~Groucho

"There are many
little ways to enlarge
your child's world.
Love of books is the
best of all."

  ~Jacqueline

"Babies are born
with the instinct to
speak, the way
spiders are born
with the instinct to
spin webs. You
don't need to train
babies to speak;
they just do. But
reading, is different."

"Wear the old coat    
 and buy the new      
 book."

"Helpful Hints for Helping            
 Your Young Reader"
    February 11, 2010
West Melbourne Library
This was our second seminar aimed
at educating young families on the
importance of reading and sharing
tips on how to encourage reading in
the home.

Does reading at home make a
difference? At 14 weeks old, a child
that has been routinely read to has
an attention span greater than a
kindergarten or first grade child that
has not been read to on a regular
basis. See how you can make a
difference for your child.
