Cooke County Library
Ms. Kim, the new “1, 2, 3…” Program Coordinator visited Ms. Pat’s Daycare in Lindsay on Tuesday, 10/9/12. She told us where the library was & how to take care of the books we get at the library. Each of the stories she read was about dogs. Each child received a “Where’s Spot” book to take home thanks to the Walmart Foundation.
In July 2011, the Cooke County Library was awarded a grant to continue supporting the “1,2,3 the Story is Coming to Me” community outreach project. The library received $2,000 from Target for an Early Childhood Reading Grant. With this grant the Library is able to continue providing 2 storyhours a year to 7 local daycare centers & give each child in those classes a book to take home. Plus was able to now offer 2 storyhours a year to local school systems that have pre-school classes. There are 4 school systems participating.
Thank you to Target!!!
