This guide describes a family literacy program developed at Spruceland Elementary School in Prince George, British Columbia. In the program, the students and their families were invited to three evening meetings and organized activities at the school. During these three evenings, activities included a trip to the local public library, sessions with storytellers, and the opportunity to join in a variety of educational games designed to encourage and improve reading skills and reading enjoyment.

The guide contains “how-to” information so other communities can set up their own family literacy nights.
