75 of the Best Books for Young Children



Our library received an $800 grant from The Greater Milan Area Community Foundation to purchase additional books from the Public Library Association's list of 75 of the Best Books for Young Children (created by the West Bloomfield Township Public Library as part of its Grow Up Reading early literacy initiative).

The books purchased through this grant have begun to arrive in our library. Additional books will be added over the next two months.

Books from this list are currently located on the shelf with the new picture books and are identified with a "75" sticker on the spine.

Books purchased with funds from the grant may be seen in our catalog here. A complete list of the books from this list in our library may be seen here.

Thank you to The Greater Milan Area Community Foundation for their support.
