Children ProgramsThe Williamsville Public Library and Museum offers options for children of all ages. Preschoolers will get a head start on school success with 1,000 Books Before Kindergarten (see below.)
School-aged children can find books labeled with AR points and reading levels. Our collection is always growing, and we can request items for you from one of the 500 libraries in the Illinois Heartland Library System! All young readers are encouraged to participate in our summer reading program, which starts in early June every year. Follow WPLM on Facebook to learn about special kits or events thoughout the year. Keeping Everyone Safe: Please wear a mask since our youngest patrons can not yet be vaccinated. |
SeriesThis series still appeals to
both girls and boys. If you need help finding something to match your student's interests or reading levels WPLM staff are here to help! Stop by or e-mail us at: billtownlib@yahoo.com |
Graphic NovelsGet kids reading just for fun!
Browse the on-line catalog or visit WPLM and see the wide variety of graphic novels that will entice boys and girls to read more. |
1,000 Books Before KindergartenStatistics show that children who have "read" 1,000 books before starting Kindergarten have a better vocabulary, are more attentive and start reading on their own earlier. For every 100 books read, the child gets their own book to add to their home library. You can stop by to pick up a tracking sheet, request that we mail one to you, or download the app for Apple or Android devices at: https://1000booksbeforekindergarten.org/resources.

Kits with materials for these projects were offered Summer 2023, but you can do them on your own any time.
