I read with interest your Cheers & Jeers section of March 5 (“Cheers & Jeers: Ramping up reading; lousy litter,” The Columbian, March 5). The “Cheers” was for Washington state legislation passing a bill to extend a program for books for children birth to 5 years.
A good program, but I would like to point out that Vancouver Dawn Lions has been donating books for four years to Clark-Cowlitz Nurse Family Partnership Children with Special Care Needs.
Thank you for reading The Columbian.
