She received a metal, certificate, prize and a FREE book from the library for her reading accomplishment. Great job to Athena, for being a good listener and to her parents for taking time out to read to her. She loves all the books at the library, particularly books on snails.<\/p>\n<p>This program was launched to instill the love of reading, get children ready for school, and to encourage more parent\/child library visits. Books are logged and prizes are awarded along the way. One of the best ways to encourage pre-reading skills is to spend time sharing books each and every day! Reading provides a solid foundation, a key to school and learning success. When you, as a parent, read to your child, you help him or her develop the skills they will need to learn to read by themselves.<\/p>\n<p>If you are interested in learning more about this reading adventure for your child, please stop by or call the Hartington Public Library at 402-254-6245.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h6><span style=\"font-family: 'Comic Sans MS';font-size: 14pt\"><span style=\"color: #000000\">\u00a0<\/span><\/span><\/h6>\n<h6><a href=\"http:\/\/libraries.ne.gov\/hartington\/files\/2015\/08\/20150806_115414_resized.jpg\">\u00a0<\/a><\/h6>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Congratulations to three year old Athena Bottolfsen, daughter of Troy and Nicole Bottolfsen for completing the \u201c1000 Books Before Kindergarten\u201d program at the Hartington Public Library.
