 The
Library of Michigan would like to introduce our 2020 Ready to Read Michigan program kit,
designed to assist public libraries in outreach and in developing early and family literacy in their local communities. The featured book for 2020 is
A Parade of Elephants, by Kevin Henkes. This program kit is designed for use by public library staff in
their outreach work to children ages 0-5 during “March is Reading Month.”
Public Libraries:
Public libraries will begin receiving kits this week. Go to
www.Mi.gov/ReadytoRead for the
programming guide, which includes coloring pages, activities, rhymes, and more.
Not a public library?
Schools with PreK or Young Five's, Great Starts, Head Starts, early childhood organizations and day cares are invited to
contact
their local public library to schedule an outreach visit or plan a library visit featuring
A Parade of Elephants.
The Ready to Read Michigan program is made possible in part by grant funds from the
U.S. Institute of Museum and Library Services (IMLS), administered by the State of Michigan through the Library of Michigan. Additional support comes from the Library of Michigan Foundation, the Consumers Energy Foundation,
and Harper Collins Publishers.
