Subject: Soar with Reading

Hello!

Soar with Reading is a FREE summer reading program brought to you by JetBlue and PBS KIDS that encourages kids to explore the world around them through "imaginative travel" by reading books and playing learning games.

One of the keys to raising young readers is to get them involved at their local libraries. That's why JetBlue and PBS KIDS are encouraging kids to visit their libraries this summer while providing you with fun and valuable resources including literacy based activity booklets. Check out our website:  www.SoarwithReading.com<http://www.SoarwithReading.com> to register.

Another great part of this program is the opportunity for JetBlue crewmembers to volunteer at your library! If your library is in a JetBlue service city you can sign up for this as well. Crewmembers can volunteer by doing a number of things including reading to kids, talking about their jobs, stacking books and more!

www.SoarwithReading.com<http://www.SoarwithReading.com> also has all kinds of entertaining activities and tips to get kids reading including:
*             PBS KIDS activities, Hooper videos, a summer reading list that explores new destinations.
*             Hooper bookmarks, travel-themed activity kits geared to encourage reading development in kids aged 3-8 and more!

Soar with Reading is a great addition to any summer reading program. Please feel free to contact me with any questions you may have.

Thank you,

Chelsea Smith
