As a pediatrician, I see every day how early reading enriches a child’s cognitive, emotional, and social development. But at our BookwormBunch sessions, I’m reminded of something even more powerful — that stories also heal, connect, and ignite imagination.
This was our 9th episode at the Leto Centre, and I am doing what I love the most — sharing stories with children who listen with openness, wonder, and joy.
In a world increasingly shaped by screens, creating a dedicated space for books, curiosity, and calm feels more meaningful than ever. I’m grateful to contribute to a social cause that nurtures a generation of thoughtful, empathetic, and lifelong readers — one story at a time.”
