"Usha Vance must be used to making history by now: When her husband took office last year, she became the first second lady of Indian descent and the first Hindu second lady."
"Vance hopes that it will encourage children in late preschool through early elementary school to love reading. In each short episode, a special guest reads a book to the audience."
"The show is called Storytime With the Second Lady, and in the first episode, it's just Vance, on her own, reading The Tale of Peter Rabbit."
"It's interesting that the second lady has decided that the best way to encourage a love of reading is through a podcast, considering all the resources she has access to."
Usha Vance, the first second lady of Indian descent and the first Hindu second lady, has launched a podcast called Storytime With the Second Lady. This initiative aims to foster a love of reading among children in late preschool to early elementary school. Each episode features a special guest reading a book, starting with Vance reading The Tale of Peter Rabbit. Notable guests include race car driver Danica Patrick and Paralympian Brent Poppen, although some selections may not align with traditional literary expectations.
