Celebrate Children's Book Week!

May 7-13 is Children's Book Week,  which is the national celebration of books and reading for youth, sponsored by the Children's Book Council.  Established in 1919, Children's Book Week is the longest-running literacy initiative in the country. Each year, books for young people and the joy of reading are feted for a full week with author and illustrator appearances, storytelling, parties, and other book-related events at schools, libraries, bookstores, museums, and homes from coast to coast!

Why not celebrate by checking out the Children's Book Week Website and stopping by the library to check out a great book.  Need help finding a great children's book?  Youth librarians will be eager to help you choose the right one!
