23 Missoula Little Free Libraries visited by TORC the CAT
Making a Difference, One Book at a Time! #SMILESwithTORC
TORC visited a total of 23 Little Free Libraries in Missoula, Montana, where he donated 58 books. The first-time finders got a coloring book as a bonus to the matching TORC the CAT children's books.
TORC is the One of a kind CAT, with two book series in work: TORC the CAT discoveries and TORC the CAT short stories. TORC was rescued in 2009 from an animal shelter in Washington State, USA. His curiosity and his loving nature inspired NONA to create her TORC the CAT character.
61% of low-income families have no books at all in their homes for their children. An analysis of a national dataset of nearly 100,000 United States school children found that access to printed materials - not poverty - determines reading levels.
TORC loves the Little Free Library book-sharing movement, because it plays an essential role by providing 24/7 access to books to famillies in areas where they are scarce. The more books in or near the home, the more likely a child will learn and love to read. But two out of three children living in poverty have no books to call their own.(SOURCE: Little Free Library Org)
