Family Reading Begins

Billings Public Library’s annual Family Reading Program will begin January 23rd and run through February 29th.   Family Reading encourages families to develop the habit of reading aloud together.  Studies have shown that children who are read aloud to have improved language skills and are more successful in school.  Pick up a Family Reading postcard at the Children’s Desk.  Initial a stocking cap on the postcard for every day the family reads together for 20 minutes a day. Once a family has read for 20 days return the postcard to the Children’ Desk. Families completing the program will receive a book, coupons from local businesses as supplies last and an entry into a drawing for a special grand prize. Family Reading is sponsored by Fuddrucker’s, This House of Books and The Grand Escape Room.
