Book Buddies 2

We recently received very good news! Better World Books, with is an international

bookseller is shipping us 40,000 free children’s books! This required a major effort to

recruit Book Buddies to assist with sorting all of these books. Some have been

transferred to the SAYL office for distribution to the Reading Buddy students (each

student will receive 3 free books selected by their volunteer Reading Buddy).

CPS Energy donated tote bags into which we included information for the students on

nearby libraries, which will have summer reading programs. Boxes of donated books

are then distributed, along with the tote bags, to the participating schools. Reading

Buddies will select 3 books or each of their students to be included in the tote bag. This

will make for a very nice end-of-year gift to the students.
