Dighton Elementary School welcomed author and illustrator Peter H. Reynolds on Friday afternoon. Peter visited our students and shared an engaging presentation about his journey to becoming a writer and illustrator. Students were inspired by his creativity, perseverance, and love of storytelling, and we are so grateful he helped us kick off our summer reading program in such a meaningful way.
Peter even shared that we were one of the best audiences he has ever had, which made our students feel incredibly proud!
A huge thank you to our amazing Dighton PTO for making this special visit possible! As an added surprise, the PTO also selected and purchased almost five hundred books so that every DES student will receive a brand-new book by the author to launch their summer reading adventures.
Be sure to visit Peter H. Reynolds’ bookstore, The Blue Bunny, in Dedham this summer and share the secret password for a special gift!
It was truly a memorable day filled with inspiration, imagination, and joy for reading!
