Reading is an adventure
At the Library with Nancy Middaugh
Reading for children shouldn’t be something they do only from September through May. At the Hamburg Public Library, we like to think of reading as a year round adventure.
Although the library does have books that meet AR requirements, we suggest that the summer months might be a good time to discover new authors, new styles and new genres.
The library has dozens of board books which are just right for little hands. For instance, toddlers can discover dinosaurs in “Dinosaurs, Dinosaurs” (Barton), learn rhymes with “My Sunny Day, Any Day Nursery Rhyme Book” (Beers), or sing along with “Wheels on the Bus” (Raffi). You can introduce children to numbers in “One, Two, Three!” (Boynton), colors with “My Very First Book of Colors” (Carle), and letters via “Miss Spider’s ABC” (Kirk).
