“We’re able to foster a love of reading that will last children a lifetime by celebrating a great book and bringing it to life,” said Youth Services Manager Marta Jackson. “Hartland’s Polar Express Day also gives families and our community an opportunity to come together and have fun. There’s nothing more magical than that.”
