One Book Colorado (OBCO): Carnegie Public Library
April 17, 2019 @ 10:00 am - 11:00 am
One Book Colorado (OBCO) is an annual program that provides every 4-year-old in Colorado with a free copy of the same book to promote the love of reading. Literacy skills are critical to success in school and in life. Not only do children who are exposed to books early have better language skills than those who wait, they also have better success in learning to read. As a child’s first and most important teachers, families need access to quality books and educational materials. By providing free books in literacy-rich environments OB4CO promotes a lasting love of learning in Colorado children.
Reader Kathleen Griego will read from the book chosen by OBCO. If you didn’t receive a free book from your local preschool, come to the library from April 8th to April 22nd to pick one up for your 4-year-old (while supplies last).
And the One Book Colorado title that will be given to every 4-year-old in Colorado is…PENGUINAUT by Marcie Colleen!! Find out where you can pick up a copy of the book through April 22 at http://www.onebookcolorado.org/pickup-locations/!
