Librarians can stay relevant in the twenty-first century when they
build on those areas where they have excelled. Service to children
is one of those, and a hot topic is emergent literacy, the earliest
phases of literacy development. Because parents are a child's first
teacher, they need to understand that children who enter school
with a larger vocabulary are more likely to succeed in school and
that they can offer experiences for their pre-school children to
prepare them for school. This book provides six sessions for a
children's librarian to use to introduce literacy skills to parents
of preschool children. These sessions teach parents how to give
their child an opportunity to explore and experience new things.
Designed to be conducted in two simultaneous units, one for parents
and one for children, handouts and activities are included. These
are especially helpful for helping parents who will be able to make
most of the teaching devices rather than purchasing expensive
commercial items. The hot topic for children's librarians building
their pre-school programming is emergent literacy, the earliest
phases of literacy development. A brief introduction to the
research in emergent literacy and some examples of successful
programs are given. Because parents are a child's first teacher,

the teaching devices rather than purchasing expensive commercial
items. This would be especially helpful as a training manual for
solo children's librarians who must use volunteers to conduct the
children's workshop.
