Calgary Reads Together Events
Volunteers listen to young readers and celebrity readers share their favourite books with Grade 1 and 2 students in Calgary Reads schools. Every child takes a book home, often the first they have owned. Hosted by a variety of schools these events celebrate the literacy development of young children. Celebrity readers share their passion for books by reading to all the grade one and two readers while the children, in return, show off their success by reading to adult volunteers.
