        1000 Books Before Kindergarten
        The concept is simple, the rewards are priceless. Read a book (any book) to your newborn, infant, and/or toddler. The goal is to have read 1000 books (yes you can repeat book) before your precious one starts kindergarten. Does it sound hard? Not really if you think about it. If you read just one book a night, you will have read abut 365 books in a year. That is 730 books in to years and 1095 books in three years. If you consider that most children start kindergarten at around 5 years of age, you have more time than you think (so get started).
