Book Picks:

 

The Burnaby Public Library’s Children and Youth Services team have also made virtual book recommendations for sharing with your colleagues, students, and families. Here is the video for Preschoolers, Kindergarteners, and Grade 1s: https://vimeo.com/420707388/7b3f84e629 . We hope this encourages kids to continue reading for fun this summer! As a side note, this video doesn’t have the capability to be embedded into any websites or blogs, however, anyone who has the link may watch it.
