About ECBC’s Storytime Online:

The videos on this page were created by kids who want to support ECBC by reading aloud to hospitalized kids, yet they could not due to stringent criteria at the hospital which doesn’t allow child volunteers. Thank you to Girl Scout Troop #3152, who came up with this idea as part of their Bronze Medal award (the highest honor a Girl Scout Junior can achieve) and created this page’s first videos . And, thank you to Girl Scout Megan Regier, who chose to work on growing Storytime Online for her Silver Award — she recruited other kids to contribute and created many fantastic read-aloud videos.  ECBC is excited to fill up this space with kids who love to read. THANK YOU to all the awesome contributors to ECBC’s Storytime Online for supporting reading for hospitalized kids!

 If you have a child, youth group, or class that wants to contribute to our collection of videos, please email Ali@ECbookclub.com for guidelines. Click here to see Ethan’s Wish List of Fantastic Titles for Read-Aloud Videos.
