A kindergarten class had a fantastic time listening to their principal read to them!
The book he read is from the Radiant Readers Cubs booklist (K-2) and the title is A Perfectly Messed-Up Story by Patrick McDonnell.
This class is 1 book closer to their Rad Reader goal! Reading is RAD and so is Mr. Lesco!
