    WORCESTER — In an appetizing collaboration aimed at fostering a love for reading among the youth, George's Coney Island Hot Dogs and the Worcester Public Library have cooked up a delectable offer: children and teenagers who bring a library book to the iconic eatery will receive a complimentary hot dog and small chocolate milk.

    The offer runs today (Friday, February 23rd) through Sunday, February 25th during the restaurant's operating hours from 10:30 a.m. to 8 p.m. (10:30 to 3 on Sunday).

    The initiative is designed to encourage families to engage in reading activities together during the school vacation period.

    The offer is available in-person only, with a limit of one special per person per day. To qualify for the free meal, children and teens must be present at the time of ordering and must bring a library book as proof of their participation in the program.

    This collaboration between George's Coney Island Hot Dogs and the Worcester Public Library highlights the community's commitment to supporting literacy and education outside the classroom, while also providing a fun incentive for kids and teens to continue reading. By combining the love of books with the love of food, the initiative aims to create memorable experiences that encourage lifelong reading habits among the youth in Worcester.
