Growing ReadersGrowing Readers

Do you know a young child in Wyandotte County without a library card? A library card and the gift of reading will take a child far in life. When children know letters, colors, numbers and the names of things before they go to school, reading is easier. Growing Readers helps parents and other caretakers foster skills kids need before they read. Find out how the library is sharing Growing Readers with parents of children age birth to four.
