Drone Delivery Service Now Dropping Library Books to Kids
Book-loving kids in Christiansburg, Va., are about to get a special delivery to ease the boredom of summer quarantine (and months of being stuck at home). Google will soon start dropping books to kids via its drone delivery service, Wing, according to the Washington Post. Now they can get their hands on a copy of The One and Only Bob (if they don’t already own it).
For many school librarians, getting kids to read over the summer can be a challenge. Kelly Passek, a Montgomery County Public Schools middle-school librarian who recommended the drone delivery service, hopes that watching a drone deliver books to their house will entice kids to read more.
