Book Buddies is a free program that brings children and adult volunteers together to share the joy of reading. It pairs trained volunteers (Big Buddies) with children in Kindergarten through 3rd grades (Little Buddies). For 10 weeks, the Buddies meet once a week in the afternoon for 45 minutes of one-on-one shared reading.
Our Spring cycle of Book Buddies will run from February 12th to April 23rd. We will take March 12th off.
Registration required. Pick up an application for Little Buddies at the front desk of the Katherine Tyra Library. Applications are due by January 31st.
Adult Big Buddies must attend a training before the start of the cycle. For more information and to register for a training, please visit the link below:
