Today was the 24th Annual Community Reading Day.
The Greater Wilkes-Barre Chamber of Commerce and the Greater Pittston Chamber of Commerce, in partnership with the United Way of Wyoming Valley held the vitural event.
Wilkes-Barre Mayor George Brown was joined by community leaders to read children’s books written by local authors.
The campaign also featured comments from people about why reading is important and what their own favorite reads were when they were younger.
