A Survivor’s Voice: Opening Up About Teen Domestic Violence

February 1st - World Read Aloud Day! Tag us on Social Media

A read aloud is not just about reading, it is about community. Before there were books, stories were recited in an oral form. Storytelling and reading aloud is an art. When you read with enthusiasm, purpose, and with emotion, you are not only fostering literacy, you are setting a scene and embodying characters. The first Wednesday of February is a day to celebrate storytelling and reading aloud. Please tag Pocono Mountain Public Library on social media with pictures of your children reading aloud or you reading aloud to children so we can celebrate together!
