Librarians at work

Benji and Trey Davey have discovered books big time. They are constantly looking at their books or bringing them to us to read. Attention spans are short at their age so the best books have bold, colorful and interesting pictures accompanied by only a few simple words that often rhyme. Because they don’t yet know not to tear out the paper pages, these early books have very hardy cardboard pages. Both boys enjoy bringing us books, then settling into our warm laps to hear our voices read the familiar stories. We point to the words as we go and describe the pictures to them. This greatly boosts their development and early reading skills. Thank you to all the family and friends who recently gave us books for their birthday and Christmas. The library is growing.
