Read to Grow in Branford is in desperate need of children's books in Spanish for its Books for Kids program.  Read to Grow is the only statewide organization dedicated to building literacy right from birth.  Books for kids sent out more than 120,000 books to families and community groups across the state last year.  We are getting numerous requests for books in Spanish and our stock is running low.  Any help or suggestions will be greatly appreciated!  Thanks! www.readtogrow.org
