A cool way to help our Northfield kids! via the Southern Minnesota Initiative Foundation.

"Read a Book, Give a Book" online campaign with a goal of having 25,000 books read from June 25 - August 1, 2012. Achieving this goal will put SMIF in a good position to apply for books next year, and it provides another resource to advance early literacy.

Today we're asking for your help in spreading the word to the children in your community, so they can begin reading these wonderful on-line books! Children and parents/grandparents can register online and choose from hundreds of books to read for free.

There are some exciting changes at TumbleReadables.
This summer, they have added 2 brand new categories!!
They have partnered with National Geographic in order to bring you nearly 200 world class videos.
They are also in the process of adding about 100 YA/Teen and Children's audio books.

Give it a try- teachers and parents LOVE it!!
