Hames twins receive “1000 Books Before Kindergarten” award

HARTINGTON - Congratul- ations to “1000 Books Before Kindergarten" award winners Mya and Reid Hames.

They are the twins of Eric and Crystal Hames. They received a medal, a certificate, their final prize and a FREE book from the Hartington Public Library.

Mya and Reid will be entering Kindergarten at Holy Trinity Grade School in the fall of 2026.

Maya and Reid love coming to the library with their brothers and sister to play with the kitchen and playhouse and also like to attend craft day. They like to read books about Barbie (MYA), Paw Patrol and Dinosaurs (REID). They like it when Miss Kim brings the Old Lady to the mom's daycare to read. Awesome job to mom and dad for instilling the love of the library and books at such a young age.

This program was launched to get children ready for school, and to encourage more parent/child library visits. Books are logged and prizes are awarded along the way. One of the best ways to encourage pre-reading skills is to spend time sharing books each and every day. Reading provides a solid foundation, a key to school and learning success.
