The story hour is an exciting event for children and their families. It builds a strong family bonding. Children look forward to listening to the stories which increases their listening skills. They love being on Zoom and take part in the discussions. The children present are encouraged to read their own story book. It builds children's vocabulary and self confidence. This Story Read Aloud needs to continue throughout the years. Dr. Rivera having the passion for reading, will be forever our Story Lady. Kudos Dr. Rivera for a job well done always.
