Hundreds Of Kindergarteners Get Free Books

(Mattoon, IL) — Every kindergartener in the Mattoon school district is getting a free copy of Mo Willems’ We are in a Book thanks to a donation. The Mattoon Rotary Club used a grant of about two-thousand dollars to purchase the books. This year’s book follows the adventures of an elephant and a pig. The club says it plans to make the same donation next year with a different book.
