TD SRC Kids’ Survey Feedback “I personally think that its a great way to get kids engaged with reading books. For example, my sister was never really a reader like I am but she is pretty determined when it comes to do anything. When she came across this TD Reading club, she just joined it along with me but after she did, she read more frequently than she normally did. I am very proud of her and happy that she's reading more now than regular! I hope you guys continue with this summer reading program to encourage more kids like my sister! Thank you !”
TD SRC Kids’ Survey Feedback “ i love this website i found out about it when i went to the library one day. a very nice librarian gave my sister and i a little booklet, at first i thought it was going to be kind of boring, but actually it was the best! the book had a code to enter in the website. i would really recommend this to kids of all ages because it's free, great games and much more! the only thing i have to say about this is, THIS IS THE BEST! sincerely, a TD reading club girl !”
TD SRC Kids’ Survey Feedback “I loved how certain books, for example, Just Under the Clouds, could be found and read right off the website. The art on the website is also lovely, and I want to personally thank those who created the club, and those who are involved in keeping it running, for donating their time and energy to inspire and involve children in reading throughout the summer. As a kid, I can tell you that you and all of your work are very deeply appreciated, and I sincerely hope that the club continues for many years to come .”
