Atlanta BookPALS partnered with Jumpstart in their Read for the Record 2008 Campaign which brings national awareness to the importance of early childhood literacy. This year's national campaign book was the children's classic, "Corduroy" by Don Freeman.
Many BookPALS participated in the October 2nd event in coordination with Matt Lauer reading Corduroy on The Today Show!
