It is time to celebrate Children's Book Week. It is an annual event held Nov. 13-19; this year it takes place in 2006.
The theme of Children's Book Week is More Books, Please! Public libraries, schools, bookstores and families across the country have scheduled special activities, all centered around--you guessed it--children's books.
Children's Book Week is administered by the Children's Book Council (CBC). If you need ideas, see the CBC's 25 Ideas for Celebrating Children's Book Week.
Our program supports the engagement of adults in this campaign. Children should learn the importance, joy and benefit of learning to read often.
