Week of the Young Child is Coming

This is an advance notice that the The Week of the Young Child 2007 will be celebrated on the Goodwin campus April 22-29. This year's theme is "Building Better Futures for All Children". The Week of the Young Child is a national event week sponsored by the National Association for the Education of the Young Child (NAEYC).

Of course the library is a member of NAEYC. In support of the early childhoold program, the library will be displaying many new and classic children's books. Other events for that week will be posted on the blog. Please remember to stop by the library during that week.

If you hadn't noticed, you can comment on blog entries. The library staff would like to hear from you about some of your favorite children's book. Comments, please! Just click on COMMENTS at the bottom of this post and send us a comment--very easy. You will feel so good afterwards.

My children have three very favorite books. "Brown Bear, Brown Bear What Do You See" and "The Very Hungry Caterpillar" by Eric Carle. My two favorite books that I enjoy reading to them are "Love You, Forever" by Robert Munsch and "Thank You, Brother Bear" by Hans Baumann and Eric Carle.
