Based on the program \"6 by 6: Ready to Read,\" this book is chock full of practical, everyday ideas on how you can foster the six core early literacy skills children should ideally acquire by age six. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eThe volume begins by introducing the importance of early literacy and explaining how to start or expand an early literacy program in your library, regardless of its size. Subsequent chapters explore the six core skills and offer suggestions on how to showcase them in library programs and services. The book also includes activities that relate to each skill, suggests books that are especially useful in exploring each skill, and tells you how to create early literacy spaces. Three sets of storytime plans--one each for babies, toddlers, and preschoolers--are presented as well. Written primarily for public librarians and library staff, this guide will also be informative for parents and for educators who work with young girls and boys.\u003ch3\u003eAuthor Biography\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eAnna Foote\u003c\/b\u003e, MLS, works at Northeast Kansas Library System, where she provides youth services and continuing education consulting services to school, academic, and public libraries throughout a 14-county region.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eBradley Debrick\u003c\/b\u003e, MLS, is the early literacy coordinating librarian for the Johnson County (KS) Library.\u003c\/p\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of Pages:\u003c\/strong\u003e 250\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDimensions:\u003c\/strong\u003e 0.7 x 9.9 x 6.9 IN\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eIllustrated:\u003c\/strong\u003e Yes\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePublication Date:\u003c\/strong\u003e November 23, 2015\u003c\/div\u003e\n            ","brand":"BooksCloud","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":52507223753011,"sku":"9781610698993","price":100.51,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0300\/5595\/6612\/files\/RFAyR0xXUExjSTFBRG1GL2lQUkhqUT09.webp?v=1760245063","url":"https:\/\/www.vysn.com\/products\/six-skills-by-age-six-launching-early-literacy-at-the-library-paperback","provider":"VYSN","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
