HARTINGTON — Riggs and Rekker, sons of Neil and Kassydi Kramer received a medal, a certificate of completion, their final prize and a free book from the Hartington Public Library for reading 1000 books before Kindergarten. Riggs and Recker will be entering kindergarten at Hartington- Newcastle School this school year.
Both the boys like visiting the library to get books with Grandma Gigi. Rigg’s favorite book is “The Cat and the Hat” and he likes to come to the library to color. Recker’s favorite book is anything “Sharks or Animals,” and he thinks that it’s okay to bring his little sister, Jett, along to the library.
Awesome job to dad and mom for instilling the love of books and the library at 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.
If you are interested in learning more about this reading adventure for your child, please stop by or call the Hartington Public Library at 402-2546245.
