Kansas Reads to Preschoolers

Jane — Thu, 03 Nov 2011 19:20:58 +0000

The State Library of Kansas, the Kansas Center for the Book and Stanton County Public Library proudly announces Chicka Chicka Boom Boom by Kansas author Bill Martin, Jr., as the selection for the seventh annual Kansas Reads to Preschoolers Week. Kansas First Lady Mary Brownback will serve as honorary chair for the special week, Nov. 13-19, 2011.

Stanton County Public Library will celebrate the week reading to daycares, preschools, Pre K & Kindergarten classes , as well as doing various activities.

The 2011 Kansas Reads to Preschoolers Week focuses on the commemoration of Kansas’ 150^th anniversary of statehood as well as the importance of reading to very young children. Author Bill Martin, Jr., was a well-known Kansas author for children, and Chicka Chicka Boom Boom is one of his best-known books. It is available in many formats. The book is described as a bright and lively rhyme in which the letters of the alphabet race each other to the top of a coconut tree. When X, Y, and Z finally scramble up the trunk, however, the weight is too much and down they all tumble in a colorful chaotic heap.

Join the Library and Kansans everywhere as we commemorate Kansas statehood, emphasize early literacy, and read to preschoolers.
