[Michlib-l] 2021 Money Smart Kids Read!

[Lancaster, Cathy (MDE)]

As with many things this year, Michigan's 2021 financial literacy campaign is evolving to meet the needs of a COVID-19 world. We're busy at work to formalize our Michigan Financial Wellness Network for year-round collaboration, and non-solicitous financial literacy programming through our Money Smart Michigan initiative, which will culminate during Money Smart Michigan Month -- all of April! It is likely that programming will be virtual this spring, and we're moving forward with monthly planning meetings -- AND our beloved Money Smart Kids Read program! (Yes, FREE BOOKS FOR KIDS!)

Thanks to our generous underwriting partner, Michigan Credit Unions, we are once again providing free copies of this year's book to libraries across Michigan for use in money-themed story time events during the month of April, 2021. These events will probably look a little different this year; they might zoom, or be live on facebook, or part of a grab-and-go project, but we can't wait to see how you use this wonderful resource!  Our 2021 Michigan Money Smart Kids Read book is (drumroll please...) Cinders McLeod's Moneybunny book, "Give It!<https://gcc01.safelinks.protection.outlook.com/?url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.penguinrandomhouse.com%2Fbooks%2F599550%2Fgive-it-by-cinders-mcleod%2F&data=04%7C01%7Clancasterc5%40michigan.gov%7C46f74ea35e4f4281f20b08d8962ab7c1%7Cd5fb7087377742ad966a892ef47225d1%7C0%7C0%7C637424457517936148%7CUnknown%7CTWFpbGZsb3d8eyJWIjoiMC4wLjAwMDAiLCJQIjoiV2luMzIiLCJBTiI6Ik1haWwiLCJXVCI6Mn0%3D%7C1000&sdata=VrKpm4XRTUnXpDyWA8GKOG%2F9J23MyDjvL2W6t%2FZFwV0%3D&reserved=0>". Our youngest readers have loved Earn It and Save It, so we're rounding things out with Give It for 2021.

Please don't delay in planning your April Money Smart Kids Read program. So each participating family receives a copy to take home and keep, request the number of books you need today. Your requested number of books will ship from the Novi Public Library via RIDES/TLN on March 8th.
