ECRR Concept of the Week

An important thing a caregiver can do for a child is spend quality time reading stories that stimulate children’s interest. Let them pick the book. It is okay if they want to “read” to you and tell you what they think is happening on the pages. This allows them an opportunity to build narrative skills which is an important early literacy concept. -Amy Dawson, Youth Services Librarian, Catawba County Library
