HEARD IN THE GARDEN
"Summer is a great time for children to explore books and develop their reading skills, so we are pleased to provide this assortment of free books to inspire your young reader. From an educator's perspective, I believe reading is one of the best strategies to prevent students from falling behind. Children who read regularly during the summer will be better prepared to return to the classroom in August."
