I attended the First Book event in Far Rockaway on May 31 and was so happy to see so many excited parents and their children waiting on line to get books. I got quite a few books for my students as well. I gave books to them to take home. A few of my students and their parents went to get books, too.

A colleague and I attended this wonderful event and our school library will now boast many popular titles. Thank you. I hope you are considering doing this regularly.
