Preschoolers are excited about books at the Sabine Parish Library. Each branch offers the 1000 Books before Kindergarten initiative in which children receive prizes for every 100 books read to them. Those books add up fast: just ask any participant! Many studies have shown that children who are read to at an early age are more successful in school, so sign up your child now and begin reaping the rewards!

Completing 1000 books was Lynndy Pitt, daughter of Brad and Samantha Pitt of Many. Completing 500 books were Frances Barnhill, daughter of Ryan and Ashley Barnhill of Many; and James Ann Jagneaux, daughter of Lucas and Ambres Jagneaux of Many (not shown). Completing 100 books were Cecelia Carroll, daughter of Bryan and Jen Carroll of Many; Macon Pitt, son of Brad and Samantha Pitt of Many; Tucker Berry, son of Ethan and Taylor Berry of Many; and Mason Bell, son of Jarret and Chelsea Bell of Many.
