Ambler Elementary School

Carson, CA

2004 

During the three week read-a-thon students from Ambler Elementary School kept journals to document their reading. Altogether they read 87,374 pages. The school, along with their sponsors, was able to donate 30 copies of The Jester Has Lost His Jingle and 30 Jester & Pharley Dolls to Children’s Hospital Los Angeles for use with their pediatric patients. Ambler students and staff were so excited about the Jester read-a-thon to help other children, that they participated three more times…in late 2004, 2008 and 2009!
