As August ends, students, teachers, and parents everywhere gear up for a new school year - a time of year that can bring about many changes, stressors, and feeling overwhelmed. Skye+Fam led a powerful 'Back-2-School Affirmations Collage' Workshop based on our books with Storytimes and hands-on Crafting at Fairytale Town. 100s of kids who visited the Story Center left with a positive sense of back-2-school identity, self-esteem, and practical tools to reduce stress, love themselves and learning!

Readathon 2023 - Read, Raise Funds, and Save Lives! So honored to lead this year's Pratham Readathon to help raise funds and awareness that every kid who loves to read can make a real difference by simply dedicating themselves to 30 minutes of reading a day. While deepening their awareness of the educational needs of millions of peers around the world who are supported by Pratham, our kids are also deepening their own communication, presentation, activism, and fundraising skills.  

There are strong children who spend their childhood in a hospital healing from complex health conditions - so much so that the hospital has a full school onsite ensuring that the children's learning and education doesn't get impacted as they heal. Thank you Shriner's family for keeping these brave children in your world-class and kid-friendly care regardless of the family's ability to pay! We couldn't be more humbled to have our books in your schools and activity centers serving comfort and joy.
