Earlier this fall, Kenwood students read the book “Waiting for the Biblioburro,” which tells the “true-to-life” story of donkeys that deliver books to children who live in remote areas around the world.
Students learned how access to books and literacy can look different for each country.
They also were able to ask questions, pet and hug the donkey, and get a new book to take home.
Kenwood staff teamed up with Kent’s Feed Barn in Cedarville for the donkey visit.
“This larger than life lesson made for a day these first graders will not soon forget,” Leinasars said.
