Volunteer of the month – July 2022
Madeley Conway
We are delighted to announce our volunteer of the month for July 2022: Madeleyn Conway! Here’s a message from her:
“I fully support ‘ mission of instilling in children a life-long love of reading and learning from birth. Reading has always played an important role in my life. It helped me overcome childhood poverty and pursue a successful career. It also has been a vehicle with which to share the world with those that are important to me, particularly my children. Reading is a source of pleasure but also offers so many opportunities to grow. I am glad to be part of an organization like that helps children discover its importance.”
Book of the month – June
Summer is around the corner, with it, many chances to experience things for the first time. In this story by Gaia Cornwall, the moment between a patient and encouraging father and a determined little boy is captured sweetly, leaving little readers and the adults in their lives with the feeling they can try anything they want when they overcome their fears.

Volunteer of the month – June 2022
Cynthia Li
We are delighted to announce our volunteer of the month for June 2022: Cynthia Li! Here’s a message from her:
“In a story, we can generally notice an evolution in the behavior of the characters. For the past few months, during which I had the opportunity to volunteer for , I felt like one of those characters. Reading thrilling and intriguing stories to children turned out to be a really fulfilling experience for me, and I can even say that I’ve received way more than I’ve given. Being a volunteer for a dynamic organization that has a mission aligned with my own values allowed me to learn many things, laugh a lot during my first reading and, hopefully, share with a new generation the joy of reading that I’ve always had since my childhood. Thank you for the opportunity you gave me!”
