Growing readers

The Sunnyvale Public Library on Feb. 14 opened its early learning hub, A Sunny Place for Growing Readers. This space is designed to help build a foundation for early literacy, lifelong learning and academic success. Young children are encouraged to learn through play.

The early learning hub contains toys, books, puzzles, a sensory light wall and building blocks. This space is intended for infants to children age 5 and was made possible by funding administered by the California State Library. For more information about A Sunny Place for Growing Readers, call 408-730-7300.
