On March 6, APAO Susan Bridenstine read children’s stories to an
audience of over 30 young students at the Armenian National Children’s
Library. The Officer gave an animated presentation of three popular
children’s books. The interaction between the speaker and the audience
was very strong, the children, their teachers and parents enjoyed

programs will help schoolchildren become familiar with the correct
pronunciation of words and encourage them to borrow American literature
from the library.
