The fall session of the Port Moody Public Library Book Buddies will run on Saturday mornings starting tomorrow (Oct. 22) and running through Dec. 10.
This 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.
The Book Buddies program 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 if they just need a bit of extra practice and motivation, Book Buddies can help. Register by calling 604-469-4577 or in person at the library information desk.
