There are also books to help children understand and deal with new experiences such as a visit to the doctors, dentist, starting school or the arrival of a new baby.
Every baby in Northamptonshire is entitled to receive a free bag of books from Bookstart. If you are involved in running a preschool or playgroup you are entitled to borrow books on a special card.
Childminders and Foster Carers are entitled to a Childminder's ticket in addition to your personal membership.
Leaders of community groups for under 8s can have a library card to borrow books for use with the children in the group.
