Irvine kids try to break reading record

BY SEAN EMERYTHE ORANGE COUNTY REGISTER

IRVINE School kids looking to smash the world record for reading the same book on the same day took part in the national Read for the Record campaign on Thursday, breaking out their copies of “The Very Hungry Caterpillar.”
    Organized by Team Kids and Jumpstart, the Irvine Read for the Record events focused on kindergarten and first-grade students.
    The campaign also corresponded with a book drive, with students and parents asked to donate “gently used” books to benefit those who don’t have books to read at home.
    Among those taking part in the event were Irvine Mayor Sukhee Kang and Police Chief David Maggard, who read to kids at Alderwood Elementary, and IUSD Superintendent Gwen Gross, who read to kids at Turtle Rock Elementary School and the Early Childhood Learning Center.
