On January 15th, 2016, we here at Take Your Child to a Bookstore Day were thrilled to hold our first ever field trip! 36 children in the pre-Kindergarten classes of the Oppenheim-Ephratah-St. Johnsville Central School District were brought to Mysteries on Main Street bookstore in Johnstown, NY. We had stories, crafts, pizza, and every child got to bring home his or her very own hardcover book!

Here's a short video showing the highlights from that wonderful day:

We were also happy for the trip to be featured in the Motherlode Blog on the New York Times, in a piece called A Day at the Bookstore for All Kids.

And here's some other nice media coverage that Take Your Child to a Bookstore Day has gotten:
