Thanks to the campaign called Magic of Storytelling, Bryant Elementary in Superior and Northwestern Elementary in Poplar received hundreds of new books on Wednesday.

Disney Publishing Worldwide provides book donations to the non-profit First Book, which is where the staff ordered from.

Brad Larrabee, principal at Northwestern, said, “The kids being surrounded by books and being excited about reading, going into the summer, it’s a principal and teacher’s dream. We are very excited to have this program for our kids.”

The books at Northwestern will stay in the library, and give whole classes the chance to read the same story.

And over at Bryant Elementary, principal Matt Amerson said they have enough books to send one home with each student over summer break.

“We’d rather they have access to books all of the time. The hope is they read it once or twice, or three times. And talk to their friends about them, maybe even trade books,” he said.

Both principals are grateful for the opportunity to share more love of reading with the students.

WDIO and Superior Choice Credit Union worked together to make a difference in our communities, by opening up a world of reading for the students at Bryant Elementary and Northwestern Elementary.

For nine years, the Magic of Storytelling campaign has harnessed the power of The Walt Disney Company’s talent and networks to inspire the next generation of storytellers by providing books to educators serving kids in need through First Book, a nonprofit organization that Disney has collaborated with for decades.  If you would like to learn more about First Book, or view videos that can help your children learn to love reading, visit ABC Magic of Storytelling.
