Martha Urquhart, with the Community Reading Program said, “I know Slave Lake can contribute greatly to this challenge, after all, we won the “Most Read Community” title for Northern Alberta Communities.”
This is the 2nd Annual Family Literacy Reading Challenge and in celebration of Family Literacy Day 2009, ABC Canada Literacy Foundation is encouraging all Canadians to participate in the attempt to break the Guinness World Record for “Most Children Reading with an Adult Multiple Location.”
