Library assistant Kara Koesters reads "The Tiny Tadpole" to a group of children on Tuesday evening at St. Henry Granville Township Branch Library in St. Henry. Tuesday just happened to be World Book and Copyright Day, an international celebration to promote the enjoyment of books and reading, according to United Nations Educational, Scientific and Cultural Organization. The St. Henry library has oodles of children's books on display. America's largest pediatricians' group says parents should read aloud to their children every day starting in infancy.
