Día reflects a library’s commitment to include and celebrate a variety of cultures year-round. On April 30, around the country, an annual, special celebration of linking children to books, home languages and cultures is held at schools, libraries, museums, churches, parks, and bookstores. But Día also provides a wonderful opportunity for parents to promote the power of books and reading to their own children. Every day of the year can be “Día,” a day for linking all children and books!​<br><span style="font-size:1em;"><br>​See below for this year's picks in children's literature for kindergarten to 2nd grade pre-readers and readers and their grownups.</span><span style="font-size:1em;">​</span></h4></div>
