WACO, Texas – Baylor head women’s basketball coach Kim Mulkey and several Lady Bears fans, in association with Padlock Book Publishing, will be providing free books for the first graders of Waco Independent School District Tuesday.



Author Stephen Davis and Lady Bears players and staff will have a short presentation beginning at 9:45 a.m. at West Avenue Elementary Tuesday. The group will emphasize the importance of reading and give the students a chance to share their favorite books. Then, the Baylor program will read Davis’ latest children’s book Brooke & Collins’ Rainy Day Adventure to groups of students from the school, and in addition, each first grader will receive a copy of the book.



Davis and the players will also have a book signing before the Lady Bears split up and read at other schools in the area, including Cedar Ridge Elementary, Lake Air MMS & South Waco Elementary School.



West Avenue Elementary School is located at 1101 N 15th Street in Waco, and media are encouraged to attend the event.
