1. Laundry Time Turned Reading Time!



It’s always nice when we see our books being shared! Too Small
to Fail, an early literacy initiative of the Clinton Foundation posted a
video that shows children reading Red Socks (by Ellen Mayer,
illustrated by Ying-Hwa Hu) and having fun together in an unusual place,
a laundromat! This initiative turns an everyday task such as a trip to
the Laundromat to help lay a strong foundation for lifelong learning
that turns laundry time into reading time. This initiative will equip
5,000 laundromats in communities with resources for families
to engage in language-rich activities. Make sure to check out the video
to learn more! Our fabulous illustrator, Ying-Hwa visited the
laundromat and had a fun time reading Red Socks to children.
