During March and April, the Multnomah County Library encourages families to read and experience books together through its Every Family Reads program. This year’s featured book is The True Story of the 3 Little Pigs! by Jon Scieszka. Sign up at any branch library and receive a gift copy of the book and fun study materials (books and materials are most appropriate for children in grades K-5.).
It never hurts to repeat, once again, how crucial it is for parents to read with their children. Here’s what the library has to say about this:
One of the most important things parents can do to boost the educational success of their children is to read to them. We hope this program will inspire you to set aside some time to read together, talk about books in your home, and visit your neighborhood library.
