BLUE. BAG. CELEBRATIONS. We've had so many this year! If you are unfamiliar, our blue bag events are for when our kids graduate out of the Raising a Reader program in their pre-K. They get signed up for a library card, have a little party, and receive a blue bag for all their future library trips and checked out books ๐Ÿฅฒ

Did you know Reading Ready Pittsburgh, beyond operating B is for Books, does TONS of other stuff in the Mon Valley and city of Pittsburgh? One super cool thing is that we made 20 literacy-focused public service announcement posters featuring local families. Imagine the "Got Milk?" campaign but with kids, their families, and books instead! Here's 8 of them for you to see. We hang them up anywhere we can -- libraries, schools, government offices, laundromats, salons... you name it! Would you like to help us find even more homes for these? Let us know! We'll ship you a couple or you can grab some next time you're at the store ๐Ÿ’ซ
