The program in a nutshell:
- When you enroll your child, you will receive a reading log and a book worm to mark your child's progress. Take the log home with you and put the book worm on our bulletin board. For every book you read, color one circle on the reading log.
- When you have read 25 books to your child, bring your reading log back to the library. Your child will get a prize!
- After every 100 books, make sure to pick up another reading log and to move your child's book worm up to the next level.
- When your child reaches 1,000 books, he or she will receive a stylish Certificate of Achievement and an awesome prize!
- Finished all the steps? Congratulations! You did it! You gave your children a priceless gift — the readiness to read!
