Dear Friends of Reading to Kids,
This Saturday we celebrate Friendship & Family at our
monthly reading clubs. Kindergartners will meet Fluffy the porcupine and 5th graders will meet Wishbone the stray dog, with the other grades reading about new friends and family members.
There are about a dozen spots available, so
sign up now! If we are full, keep checking back today and tomorrow for new spots.
If you're signed up but can't join us, please
click here to cancel before 2pm tomorrow so someone else may take your place.
