The horror took place on the evening of October 8th, as Main Street in downtown Mesa was overrun with zombies.
Kids Need to Read was at Mesa’s Second Friday handing out Highlights magazines, HIKRZ Jamboree fliers, buttons, bookmarks, and candy to the sweet and innocent . . .

. . . as well as the sweet and zombified.
When a wayward zombie veered toward our table looking for brains, we tossed him the brainiest item we had – a KNTR “I Heart Books” button!
The clever ruse worked, as not only were we saved, but so was the button-eating zombie.
Thank you Krista Bricker and Robert Gary for helping us hand out goodies to all of the ghouls haunting Main Street during “Monsters on Main.”

We also appreciate the friends who stopped by to say hello!

Come enjoy the fun at this charming street fair that takes place right outside the Kids Need to Read office in Mesa, Arizona every second Friday of the month, from 6:00 PM to 10:00 PM. It really makes a nice outing during our pleasant winter months. If you happen to spot Kids Need to Read while you are there, please stop and say hello. We’d love to visit with you.
