1,000 Books Before Kindergarten
Welcome to 1,000 Books Before Kindergarten!
Studies have shown that children who are read to improve their vocabulary, listening and language skills, and have increased attention spans. These are all essential tools when learning how to read. If you read three books a day to your child, in just one year you'll have read 1,095 books!

Any and All Books Count!
Any books read to a child in any language count towards the 1,000 books goal. Books read at library storytimes also count.
