There's no better way to get children to love books than to set them loose in a great library.  Choosing their own books to check out with their own library cards is such a thrill!  Preschoolers also love borrowing their friends' books, and can learn to enjoy lending their own in return (don't forget to paste in a bookplate!). 

Below we give you our Savvy City Editors' great ideas on lending and borrowing books.  How wonderful to think of ways that a single volume can reach and delight so many children!
