Join us in the Virtual Kids Section for a special event for kids for whom reading is NOT a preferred activity. Does sitting down to read make you want to run away? If someone’s bugging you to open a book, grab this one. In this book you’ll find out how to get through 20 minutes of reading…without really reading! This will be an interactive event as we will do a hands-on activity with Beth. All you’ll need is a piece of paper!
