Summer reading fun

I was so excited to learn that Nick’s new school offered a summer reading program for incoming kindergartners and their families. The PTA sponsors the weekly event, which gives new students the opportunity to come in, listen to a story, make a craft and even check out two books.

Nick loves visiting “his” school and I love that he gets to meet some of the students (both kindergartners and older students who are helping) he will see next year. And the librarian is so fun and full of energy. Nothing like the traditional librarian stereotype. She loves a noisy library – at least in the summer. And, Zander even gets to join in the fun. He can listen to the story, make the craft and even check out a book. The librarian has even granted Ben permission to take home a book, which means Zander gets two just like his big brother. Heck, the librarian even offered to let Mike take home a book if he found something he liked!
