Our Story

 

Bedtime with Books has provided free monthly story times at El Rodeo School in Los Angeles, California since 1998, featuring over 150 gatherings of art, reading, cookies and milk.  Centered around the importance of reading aloud, Bedtime with Books has been enthusiastically supported by El Rodeo's administrators, teachers, parents, and the PTA.  Our reading program enabled adults to pass along the magic of reading to thousands of children over the years. Now, Bedtime with Books is thrilled to be making this program available to other schools, including schools which would not otherwise be able to provide such engaging evening programs.  For every four boxes sold, Bedtime with Books will donate a box to a school without such a program.
