1000 Books Before Kindergarten!
Register here to participate in 1,000 Books Before Kindergarten through Zelienople Area Public Library! This program is free and open to any child whose home library is ZAPL and has not yet started kindergarten.
When you register, be sure to stop by the Library to grab a folder for your tracking sheets or download the free 1000 Books Before Kindergarten app to track your progress. You also get a free book, just for signing up!
We are so excited to share this journey to 1,000 books with you and hope that it will encourage your children to become independent readers when they do head off to kindergarten.
For more details on this nation-wide program, explore their website: https://1000booksbeforekindergarten.org/
Not everyone has the time or inclination to pore over the library catalog or scour the internet for book recommendations. So we’re trying out a new service—Book Bundles for children. Fill out our form to give us some pertinent information, and our staff will choose a selection for you to check out. We’ll have them ready for curbside pickup in 1-3 business days.
