1000 Books Before Kindergarten Week 20

It sure doesn't feel like we're in the 20th week of 1000 Books Before Kindergarten.

Our last Star Reader was Silas, who unfortunately did not get his picture taken. This week's Star Reader is Penelope, one of our first participants in the 1000 Books Before Kindergarten program! Congratulations!

Our last Book of the Week was "The Great Sheep Shenanigans", a silly tale about a wolf in disguise.

Our 20th Book of the Week is "Turtle Splash! Countdown at the Pond", by Cathryn Falwell.


"It's a peaceful day at the pond as ten timid turtles bask in the sun.
But wait!
A bullfrog leaps, a rabbit rustles, deer appear, a chickadee chirps, and
ten - nine - eight - seven - six - five - four - three - two - one
by one the turtles dive into the water.
Splash!"

Stay tuned for our next Star Reader and Book of the Week!
