Three-year-old Bradley O’Connor smiles as Curious George comes up to say “hi” during a stop at Neveln Elementary School Thursday. O’Connor was one of several kids taking part in the free lunch offered at the school. He then took part in the Reader’s Cafe, where kids could check out books and sign up for the Austin Public Library’s summer reading program. Volunteers from the Reading Corps helped with the Reading Cafe.
