1000 Books Before Kindergarten vs READsquared

The concept is simple, the rewards are priceless. Read a book (any book) to your newborn, infant, and/or toddler. The goal is to have read 1,000 books (yes you can repeat books) before your precious one starts kindergarten. Does it sound hard? Not really if you think about it. If you read just 1 book a night, you will have read about 365 books in a year. That is 730 books in two years and 1,095 books in three years. If you consider that most children start kindergarten at around 5 years of age, you have more time than you think (so get started). The 1000 Books Before Kindergarten app lets you keep track of your reading activity quickly and easily. - Scan books into your library - Keep track of reading activity for multiple readers - Track your progress to 1000 books!
