Reading has always been an important part of my world. I have done my best to pass that love along to my own kids, to my grandkids, and to hundreds of kids when I was teaching and operating the school library.
So when I was asked to help with our local library's summer reading carnival, I was ready and willing.
Volunteers manned a dozen small carnival games after a story time in the library.
Kids had to read a number of books to be eligible to participate. They were pretty excited about some of the prizes.

It's great to see kids get excited about reading. When I was a kid every Saturday my mom would take my grandmother to do erands. The first stop was the library. I tried never to miss these trips to the library.
A love of reading is the best thing we can pass on to our children.
What a great way to encourage reading!
How completely wonderful!
