And we're going to go to neighborhoods all over Clark County.
This makes it so everybody gets to share in the love, gets to share in the books, and the journey of growing and learning.
You know, the book provides it does take a village to help these students.
And what we're doing is we're growing the future of our community.
And so we all need to come together and support our children.
One of our biggest priorities on 60 right now is literacy.
We know that we need to work to get kids excited about reading, about learning new words, about picking up a book.
And this is a great experience for them, right?
Like, there's smiles on their faces.
They're having fun.
They're dying to bring these books home and read them with their parents.
Reading Adventure was my main inspiration.
And also Las Vegas and all the cool creatures and stockings and babies.
I would like them to just today get really engage with the imagery and just unlock their interest in reading.
They were so thrilled to open them up and start reading.
I got to read with one of the students and it was just it was magical.
And it's just making sure that we are impacting the community that we live in, that we work in, that we raise our kids.
And this is a great way to do that.
