Dear Friends of Reading to Kids,
Even though Saturday was the first day of summer vacation, 452 kids, 232 volunteers,
88 parents, and 25 teachers & staff
helped to make our June 8th reading clubs a success!
Another Author Read With Us!
On Saturday we were also delighted and proud to have long-time Reading to Kids volunteer Andrea Loney, the author of Take a Picture of Me, James Van Der Zee!, read aloud with us her 3rd grade book!
She joined us at Politi to read to the kids there, and above you can see her being "photographed" by one of the kids in her group!
