Buddy Up!

Spend an hour with a teen buddy! Build social skills, fluency, and confidence with a teen buddy here at the Essex Library. Each teen volunteer (ages 13-18) is paired with a younger reader (ages 4-8) for a relaxed hour of literacy fun.

Essex Library programs are free and open to the public.
Registration is required to ensure that each reader is matched with a mentor.
Parents are asked to remain in the building for the duration of the program.

Register a younger reader!
