Kansas Reads to Preschoolers is an annual November-long event, held since 2005, that promotes reading to all Kansas children from birth through age five. It is a project of the Kansas Center for the Book, a program at the State Library of Kansas and the state affiliate of the Library of Congress Center for the Book.
According to the State Library, this year's selection is a rhyming story in which, when the summer sun sets, lightning bugs gather round with toads, fox and cricket sounds. The book also includes lightning bug facts, an original "Lightning Bug Jamboree" song with music, and information about the Kansas author and the illustrator.
Libraries across Kansas hold readings and related activities for preschoolers and their families around the featured title during November. The State Library lists the program contact as Valarie Lamoreaux, Deputy State Librarian and Center for the Book Coordinator.
