Philadelphia Eagles Book Mobile to visit Aug. 11

The Philadelphia Eagles Book Mobile will stop by the Atlantic City Free Public Library for a special story time at 11 a.m. Tuesday, Aug. 11. The story time will be held at the Main Library, located at One North Tennessee Ave.
The Eagles’ Storybook Man will read a book to the children. Each child will have the opportunity to pick out a free book to keep following the reading. The program is scheduled to run 30-45 minutes.
This literacy program is part of the Eagles Youth Partnership (EYP). EYP serves more than 50,000 low income children in the Greater Philadelphia region every year with a focus on health and education programming. EYP takes its services directly to kids at their schools and in their neighborhoods. The signature mobile programs – the Eagles Eye Mobile and Eagles Book Mobile – leverage the celebrity and excitement of the Eagles football team, enabling EYP to capture the attention of some of the hardest-to-reach children.
The Book Mobile has distributed 555,412 books and traveled 68,508 miles since 2000, according to the Eagles.
