We're excited to share that Collicot student June Robberson is a featured reader on the MPL's Dial-a-Story service during the month of April! As a reminder, Dial-a-Story is a Milton Public Library service where folks can call 617-915-1915 anytime and listen to librarians read stories, tell jokes, and the like. The content changes monthly, and for a while now they've been including guest readers - usually kids, who read a picture book in the Dial 6 slot.
June is reading We Move Together by Kelly Fritsch, and April stories are posted now (they'll be live all month long). Please give a call and hear June read!
