You can do any and all of those things! Just set a goal and make a plan to achieve it! Let your teacher and parents know. I am sure they would like to help you! Since you are reading this letter, you are already

This month, you have the chance to read about one of my favorite Tall Tale Legends— Alfred Bulltop Stormalong. He was called Shorty for short, but there was nothing short about this legendary character. Here’s an idea for a goal for January—read every page of Kid Scoop News! Look at the Calendar and write down which pages you will read each day during the month.

Croc Conundrum .................... Day of Service ........................ Scooper Bowl ........................ Presidential Inauguration ...... Face Your Feelings .................

What fun to have a whole new year to look forward to. I look forward to getting Kid Scoop News to you throughout the coming year. Cheers!

starting on a goal to read more. Did you know if you read 20 minutes a day for fun, you will read 1.8 million words in a year? That’s a big accomplishment and kids who do that, do better in school!
