1,000 Books Before Kindergarten
Track Your Reading & Show Us Your Progress
Keep track of each book you read in your keepsake logbook or online. We know children love repetition and it helps them learn, so feel free to log the same favorites every time you read them.
For every 200 books you read, bring your reading log to any library branch to receive a special prize. You officially complete the program when you have read 1,000 books and you'll receive a free book!
