MILFORD —  Be sure to visit Milford Public Library the week of May 1. The library will be celebrating National Children’s Book Week. Every day, the library will draw a winning name for a children’s book and stuffed animal. MPL has six prizes to give away.

Children’s Book Week, established in 1919, is not only a celebration of books, but of connection. This beloved program continues to grow and adapt each year with new resources and celebration ideas.

This year’s theme, “Read Books. Spark Change,” speaks to the power that books and stories have to inspire positive change. Books can spark change within an individual reader, a family, a classroom or a whole community. Celebrate May 1-6 at the Milford Public Library. Patrons may enter the drawing once a day.
