What is better than curling up with a good book on cold, wintry days? Recently, Mountain Brook Elementary students did just that during a two-day celebration dedicated to fostering the love for reading.
On one day, students and many teachers dressed as their favorite literary characters. The second day children were allowed to wear their pajamas to school (as long as they met dress code!).
Other reading events at the school include its annual Scholastic Book Fair and the annual Writers’ Festival hosted by MBE, Cherokee Bend and Brookwood Forest in February.
