The main goal of Lesestart Niedersachsen is to integrate an interest in books, language, and literature from an early point in children's lives and establish them as a part of everyday family life. Therefore local libraries and pediatricians work hand-in-hand.
The pediatricians hand out bags at the U6-medical check-up containing a book and information on language development and reading promotion for toddlers.
The library supports this project by providing picture books for children under the age of 3, a Parent’s Library, and the “Bücherzwerge" playgroup.
