1000 Books Before Kindergarten :: 1900!

We have made it our weekly routine to attend our library's outdoor family story time, then we pick out our new books for the week. This has been such a fun weekly event for us! We'll be starting school next week, so I'll go back to pre-selecting books to match our studies, but we'll still have to attend story time for as long as they have it outdoors. And I know the kids will still enjoy picking their own books. We're getting so close to reaching our second 1,000 {unique} books before kindergarten!
