Barnyard Book-A-Thon

The Reading Clinic (www.thereadingclinic.com) and My Pony Party (www.myponyparty.com) are teaming up once again to promote literacy and animal appreciation. In previous years, they have hosted “Read to a Pig” events for children at The Reading Clinic's Bay Area locations. This year they are co-hosting a "Barnyard Book-A-Thon" at Webb Ranch in Menlo Park. Children are encouraged to bring their favorite book to read to a farm animal of their choosing, including pigs, chickens, and ponies. In addition to the reading activities, there will be a petting zoo and pony rides. Admission will be free. Donations will be gladly accepted for local literacy-related charity organizations.
