One Book 4 Colorado 2014: Creating a Culture of Literacy

Founded in 2012, One Book 4 Colorado (OB4CO) is a statewide annual initiative that offers free copies of the same book to every 4-year-old in Colorado. In 2014, the book was Grumpy Bird by Jeremy Tankard. More than 75,000 books were given away at more than 500 sites, including public libraries, Reach Out and Read Health Clinics,1 and Denver Preschool Program preschool classrooms.2 Here we present survey results from caregivers and participating agencies to find out how the program went in 2014.
