This 1989 activity calendar, developed to commemorate the "Year of the Young Reader," is divided into three sections. The first contains a calendar that lists authors' birthdays, special commemorations, anniversaries, and events. The second includes descriptions of book-related activities that complement monthly themes, weekly themes, or daily events. General activities, appropriate for any day of the year, are presented in the third section. Suggestions for activities include references to appropriate books. Also provided are three supplements, which include numerous additional activities and activity sheets. (GL)
