On Thursday, April 26, the First Book-Greater Detroit Advisory Board led by co-chairs Pandora Brown, Charlene Harper and Bomani Gray partnered with harpist and author Diane Dunn to bring the magic of reading to children at Robert Burns Elementary School.

In addition to donating 300 copies of her book, The Adventures of a Harp Mouse, to the school, Ms. Dunn read to a group of 20 children. The Advisory Board also provided each child with funny eyeglasses and mouse ears. The theme, “Focus On Literacy,” was understood by all those gathered for the event and a good time was had by all. Congratulations to another inspiring group of First Book volunteers.
