Join us for a special Story Time on November 12th at 10 am to celebrate Kansas Reads to Preschoolers. We will meet on the 2nd floor, and there will be a Bilingual story time! The Story will be “Little Nita’s BIG Idea”
Little Nita has a BIG and delicious idea to serve her community, and she must persevere to see it through; this is the premise for the 2025 Kansas Reads to Preschoolers featured book, “Little Nita’s BIG Idea” by Anna W. Bardaus. Kansas Reads to Preschoolers Month is celebrated each November and encourages reading to all Kansas children from birth to age five.
“Research confirms that reading with children fosters more than just bonding among readers; it builds language, social-emotional skills, imagination and world awareness,” said Deputy State Librarian and Center for the Book Coordinator Valarie Lamoreaux. “The State Library of Kansas supports parents, educators, librarians — everyone who reads books with children.”
