Dr. Susan Averitt of Best Start Pediatrics will host the third annual Read Across America celebration at her clinic from noon to 1 p.m on Monday, March 3. During this time volunteers will read Dr. Seuss books to her pediatric patients and guests.
Best Start Pediatrics is located on the campus of Willow Creek Women’s Hospital at 5501 Willow Creek Dr., Suite 104 in Springdale.
The Delta Kappa Gamma teachers' sorority from Rogers are providing the books during that hour as part of the “Reach Out and Read” program, which also allows the clinic to distribute a book to each patient at well-child exams.
For more information, or to volunteer as a reader, call Averitt’s office at (479) 575-9359.
