1,000 Books

Read 1,000 Books!

Welcome to Charleston County Public Library's 1,000 Books Before Kindergarten program. We know that the more often young children hear books read to them, the more prepared they are to begin reading on their own when they start kindergarten.

You are your child's first and best teacher, and when you talk, sing, read, write, and play together at home, you are building your child's vocabulary and language skills, and preparing him or her to begin reading independently.
