We always admired how many books #dollyparton gave away to children

Research shows that reading improves our understanding of what others are thinking and feeling. Also, a 2014 study found kids who talked through characters' emotions showed real gains in emotional intelligence and empathy! That’s why our book discussions are so important 🌎💕

What’s the hardest sound effect to perform with dignity during a read-aloud? We’ll start: a helicopter. #readingtokids #losangelesvolunteer #readingclubs

During their summer vacation, 76 kiddos chose to come to school for our July reading clubs! To us, that shows reading can be fun, social, and worth showing up for. Thank you to our volunteers and partner schools for making it possible! 💙📚 #readingtokids #thankyou #volunteer

Our July reading club theme is “Amazing Animals,” and our read-aloud books are full of them! 🐻🐧🐶 Kindergarteners will rescue a dog that gets eaten by a book, 1st grade will discover the true story behind Winnie-the-Pooh, and 2nd graders will learn all about penguins! 📖

According to Kim (2004), kids who read 4 or more books over the summer score higher on fall reading tests, regardless of their socioeconomic or academic background. That’s why Reading to Kids provides free summer reading clubs and gives each child books to read all summer! 📚
