The CRIT Library in collaboration with CRIT Royalty has launched a program called Reading with Royalty at the CRIT library. The idea was inspired by the Reading Across America program and Dr. Suess’s birthday.
Members of CRIT Royalty would sit down and read a book while being recorded to create a short video that children and other guests at the library can watch or even read along with while listening to the short stories.
CRIT Tribal Council members along with members from Fish & Game and the early literacy program attended the inaugural event.
Those attending included Chairwoman Amelia Flores, Secretary Josephine Tahbo, Council Members Vanessa Welch, Raeanne Patch, and Tommy Drennan, Fish & Game Warden Andrea Eddy and, CRIT Library’s Early Literacy Coordinator, Emily Panuco.
