First graders at Lewisburg Elementary School look through books donated to the school by the library section of the West Virginia Division of Arts and Culture for National Young Readers Week on Tuesday. Around 100 books were donated and First Lady Cathy Justice read to the students. National Young Readers Week is an annual event that takes place during the second week of November. The goal is to encourage a love of reading among the nation’s youth, raise awareness about the importance of literacy, and highlight the power of books.
