Have Fun Molly Lou Mellon by Patty Lovell. Molly Lou Melon's grandma taught her to be happy with herself no matter what, but that's not all she learned. Molly Lou heard all about how her grandma didn't have fancy store-bought toys when she was little. She made dolls out of twigs and flowers and created her own fun in her backyard. So Molly Lou does just that, proving that the best thing to play with is a huge imagination!

Our Every Child Ready To Read theme for the month of March is Vocabulary Skills. Knowing the names of things. As we read to our children they learn new words every day.  Have fun reading to your child.  You don't have to be a great reader just spending the time with your child is all it takes.  They don't know the difference so have fun and enjoy your special time.

Please come and join us every Tuesday at the Keene Library.  We hear fun stories, sing silly songs like My Dog is a Counting Dog, and we also create wonderful crafts for the children to take home....

There is a small fee of $2.00 per child.

 Princesses Love to Share by Timothy Knapman.  

Polly owns many wonderful things, but learns from her friend Chloe that they are even better when shared. 

Our Book this week is based on the Vocabulary Skills.

The skill we’ll look at this month is Vocabulary, knowing the names of things. First, children understand words for things (like juice, bottle, Mommy), then for feelings and concepts, and then ideas. Books give us three times as many unusual words as we use in everyday conversation. If our children have heard these words before, it will be easier for them to sound them out and recognize them when they learn to read.

Please join us as we explore how Princess Polly learns to share.  This book helps to develop your children's vocabulary.  We will sing silly songs, create a craft and of course play musical instruments during our song time.

If you love a bear by Piers Harper.  

Simply told through a series of episodes in the day of a boy and a very big bear, this tender, slightly undersize (and affordably priced) book manages to both flatter a child's sense of competence and teach the rewards of thinking about others. "If you love a bear," Harper (Turtle Quest) begins, "you will know that bears like to be woken up gently." 

Our book this week has the attributes of Vocabulary skills and Print awareness skills. Your child will love this cute tale on how to love a bear.Please joins us every Tuesday as we explore wonderful stories.....
