Check out these from our most recent project. The Teen Outreach Program at CHANCE Girls Home organized a Family Reading Night. The residents of CHANCE took the lead in the activities, sharing several children’s books with the group, including Eric Carle’s The Hungry Caterpillar and Anna Dewdney’s Llama Llama Red Pajama. Some of the young guests in attendance were so enthusiastic that they joined in to help with the reading! The TOP group was delighted to give each attendee two books of their choice to take home.
