Great Books for Babies

Your baby is born with 1 billion unconnected brain neurons. Much of his brain development and those developing connections depend on the sensory experiences he has in his early years, and the language he hears. The best way to help develop his brain, his understanding of language, and an appreciation for high quality art is to introduce him to books as soon as he is born. The best news? You can check out 60 books with your Richland Library card!
