"Be the change you want to see in the world"
Gandhi
What could be more important than helping a child become a better reader? Today some photos of STAIR ( Start The Adventure In Reading) reading programs around our city.
Today City Daily Photobloggers around our world are posting their interpretation of the theme CHANGE.

If only the change I wanted depended solely on me. Pray 1st.
2nd, Happiest New Year to you, wunderful Alabaman French woman Virg!
What an inspiring thread to remember as the year progresses, Virginia. Individual action may not be enough, but if enough of us act in concert, we can change the world.
I can keep that with me as I meander off into twenty ten.
What a fabulous post for the word change,Virginia. I wish you the happiest of New Year's and have a great time in Paris. As if you won't!
Best possible post on that theme!
We can all make and contribute to change!
Beautiful interpretation of the theme, V! Thank you! Happy New Year. Hope you're not suffering too much this morning from last night's revelries.
I like your take on the theme!
A nice bit of a boost!
Well chosen, Virg! And I find that bottom picture absolutely charming.
Happy New Year.
Great way to start the new year, helping others! You are quite the photojournalist! Love these pictures.
Happy 2010!

Excellent project!
Wonderful message! Wishing you a very happy and prosperous new year!
Like you, this couldn't be more wonderful. Happy New Year!
Love this serie , beautiful ! i wish you an excellent new year :)
A wonderful series, Virginia. And, as a former teacher myself, I believe there is nothing more important than learning how to read!
Great program!
Thanks for you kind words. I'll be blogging off and on as time allows for awhile, but I want to wish you a happy, healthy and prosperous New Year!
great message to the world!
Happy new year to you and wish you have a joy for watching those kids improved their skill.
This is the "change" we need more of! A lovely cheerful message for the new year.

Excellent illustration of Change .. and super photos, you do portraits so well, V.
such a wonderful and profound photo for theme day. everyone can assist in making real changes in people's lives. well done. Happy New Year and I wish you many good photos in your future in 2010!
Super captures of this wonderful event, V. I miss reading with my daughter and children at here school when they were young. She still enjoys reading aloud to me, though, so that is fun. We used to have DEAR Day in our community. . .Drop Everything And Read day. Literacy is so important and brings such pleasure to life!
Best to you in this new year dear Virginia, and much continued happiness as you bring us more of your fair city.

Well, ah, I see you got a theme day thing together, unlike some people we could mention. Such a good point. Your Gandhi quote makes me think of Victor's post today. Is that you in the middle picture?
So Bob, what's your excuse ???Hummm? We've had ALL MONTH to figure out the theme day ! :)
You get a pass since the acrobat photo is SOOOOO fab.
Such a simple yet profound concept in Gandhi's quote...and so aptly demonstrated in these photos...
May this be the beginning of a very happy new year!!!!
Your interpretation of CHANGE is deserving of an award. This post is inspiring.
Changing a life often changes more than just one life.
In a word: fabulous. Look at those faces! Worth a thousand words.

Virginia I almost had tears in my eyes. This is such a moving post!
Yes I believe in being the change you want to see in the world and yes I believe education is the key to everything.
Probably the best post of today's theme.
