Volunteer book lovers help promote reading by going out into their communities and sharing free copies of books they love.
The mission of World Book Night is to seek out those without the means or access to printed books. Amy Waterman, Director of Middletown Public Schools’ Family Resource Centers along with Nikki Belton, Macdonough School’s Family Resource Center Site Director are coordinating the efforts.
“Macdonough School has a long and proud history of providing literature to our students,” said Mrs. Waterman.
“It seemed only natural to extend this outreach to families.” Parents will be reading Playing for Pizza, written by John Grisham.
