WGBY is proud to present the Martha Speaks Read Aloud Book Club, a series of literacy events at local public libraries in western Massachusetts.  At each event, a new dog-themed book will be read aloud along with other crafts, games, and surprises.  These events are geared towards children preK-2.

Here’s one of our friends, Dan Paquette from the Westfield Athenaeum, talking about this program from last year.

Registrations for these events will be taken by the libraries themselves on a first-come/first-serve basis.  For a list of participating libraries and their contact information, visit the WGBY Events page.  The Martha Speaks Read Aloud Book Club is just one part of WGBY’s Raising Readers initiative, a series of events focused on preventing the summer reading slide.
