"The
idea that there is a program
out there that recognizes that
the children are hurting when
one of the parents are incarcerated."
"My children love me
to read to them and they miss
me doing that for them."
"It helped me reach out
to my child when I could not
be there in person. Also I
was able to get across the
importance of reading."
"This blessing allowed
my grandchildren to feel like
they were #1 and important!
Thank you!"
"Made my kids very happy
to see Daddy read to them."
"It
let me read a book and send
to my son. Also it shows me
that some people still care
how inmates feel about their
families and that's what counts.
It made me feel good."
"It made me more aware
of the importance of reading
to my children."
"It helped me realize
the importance of reading to
my child. I understand that
my kids need it to build self-confidence
and a stronger relationship
between us."
"To have my child or
let my child know that I still
care for him and can teach
him that even though I'm in
a bad place I can still be
a good parent."
"The inmates are very
appreciative and glad we are
there."
"Get involved and stay
involved!"
"The workshop is good
because we get to know about
the inmates and their family."
"I
think it's great because a
lot of time has gone by without
seeing their dad."
"Well it's been a long
time since they saw their father
so they loved the tape and
the book made them laugh."
"This was such a sweet,
thoughtful gift and surprise
to all our family. I never
saw this kind of program. This
is very encouraging coming
out of a jail. Good job everyone."
"It made him more eager
to read along (even though
he can't read yet). Makes a
special bond with child and
adult while instilling reading
at early years in life."
