The winter session of the Port Moody Library Book Buddies will run on Saturdays from Jan. 28 to March 10.

This fun, free program helps children in Grades 2 to 4 improve their reading skills through weekly practice sessions; children are paired with trained teen mentors for 40 minutes of shared reading and learning games.

Book Buddies focuses on helping children become confident and enthusiastic readers. Teen buddies work with their little buddies to build basic skills using fun and effective techniques. Kids choose the books they read and win fun prizes for their progress.

If your child is having difficulty with reading, or just needs some extra practice or motivation, Book Buddies can help. Register by calling 604-469-4577. For more information, visit www.library.portmoody.ca.
