Welcome to the Get Ready to Read! librarian section!
Get Ready to Read! and your library are a perfect combination. This Web site is full of resources and information to help young children build the early literacy skills that they need to be ready to learn to read.
By sharing these resources with families that visit your library, you will provide them with early literacy experiences that will build skills and build a love of reading that will last a lifetime.
The Get Ready to Read! Web site is full of free resources that can easily be accessed on library computers. Families can use these resources online and librarians can print out activities and information that parents can use with their children. All materials on our Web site are free to print out and distribute.
