SUMMARY:Read And Write Nights - January 2026
DESCRIPTION:Your favorite monthly virtual program is back…\nOh yes\, it’s Read And Write Night!\nKalamazoo 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. \nHear a perspective that is new to you\, enjoy reading together\, express your ideas\, and find power in the written word. \nAll Read and Write Nights will take place via Google Meet. \nEach participating family will receive a copy of our monthly book prior to the event\nThis month’s session is open to 16 families \n\nRegistration opens on December 17th\nClick here to register\nOur January title is Friends Are Friends Forever \nwritten by Dane Liu and illustrated by Lynn Scurfield \nJust before Chinese New Year\, Dandan discovers that her family is moving to the US\, far away from her best friend Yueyue. Yueyue gives her a stack of red paper and a spool of string so she can share the art of paper cutting. When Chinese New Year comes around again Dandan remembers Yueyue’s gift and introduces her new friend Christina to this ancient art. \n  \n
