Ringenberg, Marie; Currie, Robin

Illinois Libraries, v70 n1 p34-35 Jan 1988

A program designed by the Palatine (Illinois) Public Library to help children reading below grade level included weekly storytimes in the classrooms, parent/child programs in the library, and cable television programs on storytelling and illiteracy. Increased attention spans, higher levels of cooperation, and more positive attitudes toward reading were observed as a result. (MES)
