Prepare Your Child from Infancy for Lifelong Learning
The first five years of a child’s life are the most important for developing a passion for books and learning. Sharing and reading books with children from infancy to age five prepares them for kindergarten and establishes a foundation for lifelong learning. As a parent, you have the strongest influence in motivating your child to fall in love with books and to become a good reader when he or she begins school.
Create a Bright Future for Your Child
Children who learn to love books at an early age are better prepared for learning when they start school. Your enthusiasm and positive attitude about reading will deepen your child’s interest in books and make early learning fun. Raising A Reader helps you to help your child establish a solid foundation for success in school, work and life!
To participate in the Raising A Reader program, contact your child’s preschool teacher, child care provider, or community family center; or you can call us at (707) 252-8931, ext. 2847.
