Your favorite monthly virtual program is back…
Oh yes, it’s Read And Write Night!
Kalamazoo County youth in grades K–5 are invited to join RAWK staff and volunteers to share our monthly picture book title. Working in small groups, we will read aloud and then respond to the story with using engaging and creative prompts that encourage us to discuss, write, and draw! After small group time, we’ll have a chance to share our responses with the whole group.
Hear a perspective that is new to you, enjoy reading together, express your ideas, and find power in the written word.
All Read and Write Nights will take place via Google Meet.
Each participating family will receive a copy of our monthly book prior to the event
This month’s session is open to 16 families
Registration opens on November 19th

Our December title is Solar Story
written and illustrated by Allan Drummond
Through the lens of a class field trip, we take a look at the largest solar plant in the world, the Noor Solar Power Plant in Morocco’s Sahara Desert! With engaging detail-filled illustrations, narration, and fact-packed sidebars, we learn how the plant is not only bringing reliable power to the village and far beyond, but is providing jobs, changing lives, and upending the old ways of doing things.
