Benji’s loves to read his favorite book, Dr. Seuss’s “Circus McGurkus 123”. This unusual book was a gift from Jackie our HANDS Program nurse. Unlike their other books made of paper and cardboard, this book is made of soft cloth. He delights in looking at the colorful pictures and running his finger along the words, perhaps remembering the story that has been read to him so many times before. After finishing each spread he turns the pages right to left until the book is completed. We hope by reading to the boys at this early stage to develop a love affair with reading and knowledge that they can enjoy for the rest of their lives.
