Jon Escueta, hence launched an initiative to boost the self-esteem of his young customers by encouraging them to read aloud while getting their hair cut. He started the program last year when he offered $3, a free book and a piece of candy to children who read with undivided attention.

Escueta, a former youth Basketball coach, told WFMZ-TV, “ We have kids who come in and want to read no problem, but it’s the shy kids that will make a little bit of difference in their lives.”

Once launched, the initiative picked up speed and drew interest from all over. Jon Escueta’s Facebook page now averagely receives a million views prompting children’s book authors to reach out to him for collaborations. He is asked to keep the latest editions of their books in his shop.
