I Love Reading MonthTop of Page

March is I Love Reading month and the Pleasant Grove library will celebrate with their 2nd annual month long book drive through SignUpGenius. Let's see if we can meet or beat our goal off 100 new books for the Pleasant Grove Library. A special thank you to all the generous families who have already donated books to the library!

Remember,

"You're never too old, too wacky, too wild,

to pick up a book and read to a child."

(quote by Dr. Seuss)
