KIDS across Australia are set to receive free books thanks to a can-do mum from the Mornington Peninsula. Melinda Shelley has distributed more than 12,000 free books to children on the peninsula through her foundation, 123Read2Me, and with the help of the Lions Club the program hopes to go national next year. She has also campaigned for better health services, joining the Breastfeeding Interest Group and Women's Community Advisory Group at Peninsula Health as a consumer representative.
