Reading Buddies – Starting Soon
We’re excited to announce a new program where kids will be reading to kids.
It’s about mentoring.
We know that kids who have an adult reading to them and with them, will naturally grow to love books and reading themselves, even if they were a little reluctant before then. But, our program has a twist – We’ll be paring kids of different ages and reading abilities together.
Let us know if you’d be interested in getting your children involved in Reading Buddies.
The program is still in the planning stages. We’ll be announcing more details in the next month or so.
