Does your young reader need a helping hand? Perhaps some practice reading words out loud and applying basic comprehension skills, or maybe just some fun reading time to encourage a lifelong love of books?

Join us at West Valley Branch Library for Reading Buddies, offered twice a week on Tuesdays from 4-5pm and Saturdays from 11:30am-12:30pm. We have trained, enthusiastic teen volunteers available to read with your child. Our volunteers work one-on-one or in small groups with kids to help them choose the right books for their reading level and to practice reading them together in a fun, stress-free environment. This program is recommended for young readers in K-3rd Grade, but older or younger children are welcome to join us if this sounds like the right type of program for them. No need to sign up in advance...Just join us in the Storytelling Area!
