Books & Breakfast brings community volunteers into area elementary schools each day to read to children during school breakfast. Volunteers share their enthusiasm for books and reading, open milk cartons and offer encouragement for another day of learning.

"This program meets multiple needs. It involves children with literacy, provides positive role models, builds self-esteem and improves behavior."   ~ principal

Participating schools this year are Central in Bellows Falls, Green Street in Brattleboro, Grafton and Saxtons River.

"I didn't know that men could read."   ~ young boy
