Many R.E.A.D.® teams have wonderful ideas for sharing the various holidays with their young readers. Children are excited about the special events at their schools and libraries and love seeing their reading buddies ready to join in, as well. Whether with a simple scarf or a full costume, offering a greeting card or bookmark or a photo of your pals, it's fun to celebrate the seasons and the holidays. The photos below might give you some ideas for your own upcoming special occasions. Click any dog's name to find out more about their busy lives.
