1001 Books Before Kindergarten
Wauwatosa Public Library’s 1001 Books Before Kindergarten program is designed to expose children to outstanding literature and art. Working from the list of recommended authors and titles ensures that your child will be exposed to important literacy concepts and literary tools before starting formal education. You can download the welcome letter, first log, and list of books and get started right away.
We also offer a virtual version of our program on Beanstack! Sign up online or stop by the library in person to begin your 1001 Books Before Kindergarten journey on Beanstack. For readers who are already registered, stop by the library and a children’s librarian can help you transition from print logs to virtual tracking.
Reading Passport
Wauwatosa Public Library’s Reading Passport program is designed to expose children to a wide range of genres and topics while continuing to foster a life-long love of reading. Passport holders read books within the genre or Dewey Classification designated on each page. Children can download the reading passport and get started right away!
