How to Raise a Reader

Post Published: August 24, 2011

Meet Sarah, a growing reader.

Sarah started attending storytimes at the Shirlington Branch Library when she was just 17 months old.

Sarah’s mother, Mimi, recently told us that before attending Library storytimes her daughter used to only reach for toys. But after only a few storytimes, Sarah started reaching for books instead!

Now a mature bibliophile of 23 months, Sarah wants everyone to know how much she loves the Library. Thank you, Sarah!
