Thanks also to the Stone Primary Reading Committee for their support!
Follow-up: One of our most well-attended Family Reading Night in years! Thanks to everyone who attended and made the evening such a success, In addition to a presentation and book-signing by the author, including a sneak peek at Cowboy Dave which was not even yet available in stores, there were presidentially-themed sessions from which to choose. Students enjoyed patriotic crafts, a bilingual storytime and a reader's theater starring our primary teachers! Students had the opportunity too have pictures taken in the presidential seal and vote for a favorite character...sorry, Squid, Duck for President won the election! There was a cameo appearance by Grabby Bunny and I think we all enjoyed hearng what our students would do if they were in the Oval Office. Another round of gratitude to our author Aaron Reynolds, our community partner The Book Cellar, our Stone Staff Reading Committee with a special hug to Ms. Dora Sanchez, generous teacher volunteers and our dear families in attendance. Great books definitely won our vote!
