children's picture books. Participants of Prime Time is designed for
elementary school children ages six to ten and their families.
PRIME TIME Family Reading promotes literacy for all Kentuckians.
What does PRIME TIME do? It reinforces the role of
family as a major social and economic unit; it trains parents and children to
bond together around the act of reading; it teaches parents and children to
read and discuss humanities topics such as fairness, greed, honor, and deceit;
it encourages low-literacy, low-income parents to enter or continue their own
educational programs; it helps parents and children learn how to select books
and become active library users. Prime Time is a powerful tool to stimulate
communication between children and parents.
