In the News.........
During the Week of the Young Child, April 2 – 8, 2006, Pennsylvania launched One Book, Every Young Child, the state’s first-ever collaborative project to promote the development of early literacy skills through interactive experiences with books and stories. The book Inside Mouse, Outside Mouse, by Lindsay Barrett George was selected as the centerpiece for this important program. Information and program ideas have been developed by librarians and museum educators from across Pennsylvania to promote the value and benefits of reading early and often to preschoolers and to encourage family bonding through books and reading. 
Sunshine Corners chose to introduce this special book by inviting a guest from Representative Gibson Armstrong’s Quarryville office to read to the children. On April 6th Frances Sears, a legislative aide from Representative Armstrong’s office, visited Sunshine Corners, a non-profit childcare center located in Strasburg, to read Inside Mouse, Outside Mouse to children ages two through five. The children listened attentively as she read the story and asked questions about each page. The children responded enthusiastically to her questions. |
