Dear Friends of Reading to Kids,

We're on the launching pad and counting down to lift-off. This Saturday our reading clubs will take us "From the Earth to the Moon."

Our Saturday reading clubs are currently full, but please continue to check our website tomorrow before 3 p.m. for openings due to cancellations. If you're already signed up for the reading clubs and you know you can't make it, be sure to cancel online to open up your spot for someone else.
