“We will be bringing characters to various area libraries in Northwest Florida each month from now through next summer for story times to encourage a love of reading and learning,” said Jeni Huckstep, WSRE’s educational service coordinator.

Additional learning resources for parents, teachers and children are available at www.wsre.org/education.
