Book Buddies begins

A favorite activity at North Branch is the Book Buddy program that takes place every Tuesday. Excited voices fill the school as pairs consisting of an older child and younger child settle in for reading time. The older children practice reading out loud and the younger children get to dream of the day when they will be readers. They all get the opportunity to connect with a child outside of their grade level, share interests, and most of all, have fun.
