We love this photo of Randolph County chapter president, Dr. Mary Boyd, with two of her patients who wanted to say thank you for the great books! Dr. Boyd's clinic is one of many Reach Out and Read sites across the state where children can receive books at regular check-ups. 📚

For many of us, the love for reading was instilled at an young age by parents who read to us. National #FamilyLiteracyMonth reminds us the importance of reading together as a #family. #Reading #readingcommunity #librarylife #BookWeek2020atHome #picturebook #baby #toddlers
