"Books Are Brain Food!" Winter Break Family Reading Program

Feed your family's well-being by reading together this holiday season. Stop by any Oak Park Public Library location starting December 13 to pick up your family's reading record and track your reading progress towards completion prizes for your kids. The Library will also be collecting canned food donations for the Oak Park River Forest Food Pantry during the program.

This all ages program runs December 13 through January 10. Reading aloud with your kids will support literacy skills and family bonding, even if they are already reading independently.  For more tips on how to Raise a Reader visit http://www.oppl.org/raiseareader/.
