Herr Library offers book lists for babies, preschoolers

       Good reading habits begin early, but with a sea of books to choose from, parents may be understandably confused.  To help parents get their children off to a great start, the staff at the Herr Memorial Library has created two pamphlets: "Great Books to Share with Infants and Toddlers" and "Great Books to Share with Preschoolers."
       The pamphlets are available free of charge at the library, which is located at 500 Market Street in Mifflinburg.
       The books listed in the pamphlets were chosen specifically for the needs of emergent readers.  Each has something to teach a child, whether it's the repetition of sounds or the introduction of shapes and colors.
       The books that are featured in the pamphlets are all in the library's circulating collection, and for a limited time many of them will be displayed together on a cart in the library's Children's Room.
       For more information, visit the library or call 966-0831.  The Herr Memorial Library is open from 11 a.m. to 5 p.m. Tuesday through Thursday, from 7 to 9 p.m. Monday through Friday, and from 10 to 5 p.m. on Saturday.
