Ler Não Custa Nada, Valongo

Contribute to cognitive well-being, development of creativity, communication, imagination and critical thinking.
The employee will have at his disposal some books among which he can choose the one that suits him the most, being able to enjoy reading a book during his work breaks (for example, lunch time).
