Libraries are Important!


:

Neil Gaiman, author of  Coraline The Graveyard Book and Chu's Day says libraries are important!  Reading fiction and reading for pleasure are the most important things one can do.  Imagination is key for the developing mind of a child.  Fiction builds empathy (helping people to work together), fiction can show you a different world, and fiction helps us to navigate the world.

Libraries are about freedom - freedom to read, freedom of ideas, and freedom of communication!  Libraries provide entertainment, a safe space and access to information.
