Their school also participates in the Scholastic Reading Club, meaning they get a monthly flyer of books that they can buy, and they love to get books that way. I remember my school having the same program back in the day, and that really encouraged my love of reading. Getting that stack of new books each month - heaven!
I fondly remember ordering books from the monthly flyers and excitedly opening the packages of books, when they arrived. I also loved reading the Weekly Reader.
