Opis
Sažetak:Growing research shows a crisis in our youth’s confidence and a marked increase in stress and anxiety.1 Summer at the library is vital for addressing opportunity gaps in learning and fostering interest-driven reading and learning, but what about the critical role library programs play in helping youth become confident learners?

In a time that has exploded as that of the “anxious generation,2” building confidence can help children flourish.
