Families of Waterloo Region - Let's Read!

We are excited to announce the launch of Let’s Read, a family literacy initiative in partnership with Cambridge Libraries and Galleries, Kitchener Public Library, Region of Waterloo Libraries, Waterloo Public Library and Project Read. Together we are working to get the families of Waterloo Region reading - reading the same book, reading together as a family, and reading together as a community.

Literacy is important for the whole family. Children who are read to and who see their family reading demonstrate improved reading skills. Make literacy a family project and let us help.

Join us for the official launch of the Let’s Read program at Word on the Street on Sunday, September 27th in Victoria Park. It will be twice the fun as we celebrate the Canadian classic Jacob Two Two Meets the Hooded Fang by Mordecai Richler.
