Reading as a family is proven to aid children in developing key language and literary skills. But what happens when a family member is away on leave for extended periods of time? Thirty-three years ago, a military spouse created United Through Reading to create a system that would help bring families together through books. Host Holly Dailey talks to United Through Reading\u2019s Molly Haskin to talk about the program, how they have adapted to the latest phone technology, and whether it\u2019s possible to develop mind powers like Roald Dahl\u2019s Matilda.\n\xa0\n\xa0\nGuest: Molly Haskin, Director of Army, Air Force, and Space Force Programs for United Through Reading\n\xa0\nHost: Holly Dailey\n\xa0\n\u202f\xa0\n\u202f\xa0\nResources:\xa0\n\xa0\nMorale, Welfare, Recreation (MWR) Library\xa0\nWebsite: https://unitedthroughreading.org/read-beyond-the-beaten-path-this-summer/\n\xa0\nReading App Challenge June 15 \u2013 August 31\nWebsite: https://unitedthroughreading.org/join-our-2022-summer-reading-app-challenge/\n\xa0\nMobile Van and Joining ForcesWebsite: https://unitedthroughreading.org/mobile-story-station-for-military-families-rolls-into-union-station/\n\xa0\nAudio Clip Credits:\nReading for the Record with UTR - SMA Dan Dailey, US Army.
