Communities

If you want your children to be intelligent, read them fairy tales.
If you want them to be more intelligent, read them more fairy tales
-Albert Einstein

BCSCR has a lot for communities: neighborhood libraries, workshops on helping kids read, family reading nights, reading blogs, free books, and more!

Little Free Libraries

comm.book.kid.1We’re setting up Little Free Libraries in every district. A Little Free Library is a place where you can pick up a book to keep and drop off books for other people to read. Some libraries are book racks, and some are “book houses.”
Take a book–Leave a book! Look for one in a neighborhood near you!

Businesses and Organizations: Do you want to sponsor a Little Free Library? If you help build it, we’ll let you put your name on it! How cool is that?

Community Groups: Do you want to host a Little Free Library? You can put one in your facilities for your patrons to enjoy.

Libraries contain book for all age groups, from toddlers to adults.

Comm.ReadingNight.1Parent Workshops

Over the next year and a half, we’ll be hosting workshops on how parents can help their children read better. You want your kids to read well, right? Come learn how you can make it happen! Your regional coordinator will let you know when they are scheduled. All participants will get free books to take home.

Family Reading Nights

Just what it says…a place and time to get together to read with your family…and lots of other families from your community. Look for the schedules posted soon! Let’s show our children that everyone reads!

Reading Blogs

What are you reading? Do you like it? Would you recommend it to your neighbors? Share it with the world on your community reading blog!

Sign up to be a member of the blog and you will be able to create posts about what you’re reading! Share your books with the ENTIRE WORLD.

If your state is… and your school district is… then your reading blog is…
