The Lewiston Public Library wants you to read 1000 books with your child before they enter Kindergarten.

To join the fun, just start reading!

Grab a tracking sheet from the library, and each time you complete 100 books, bring it back in. You’ll get to add a sticker to our recognition wall and enjoy a special treat! Then pick up your next tracker and keep going. It’s that easy!

The idea is simple; the rewards are priceless.

Help your child prepare for one of life’s biggest milestones, Kindergarten. The goal is to read 1000 books (yes, you can repeat books) before your little one begins kindergarten.

Why should you participate?
Develop your child’s love of reading at a young age
Bond with your child as you read together

Teach your child all about the library and the joy of books
