VIDBE-Q Volume 68 Issue 4 35 Our public libraries play a key role in getting students ready for academic success. For children with disabilities, the library provides another avenue to help nudge the reading and writing skills that are so important in their future school experience. According to Lacey, "In a way, storytime has become an extension of school, giving him an additional day where he can practice sitting, listening, working on an activity with friends around him. He only gets four hours of special education preschool, and during the summer there will be several weeks where he has no school at all. Storytime gently reinforces all the important skills he will need to be ready for kindergarten in an accommodating environment."
