Yesterday, ConnectingAuthors hosted yet another successful Family Literacy Celebration in Oakland. We collaborated with Kristi Yamaguchi's Always Dream Foundation and had the pleasure of both listening to Kristi read her story and hear the students read about their dreams. Kinder kids wrote their own books with the help of a third grade big buddy. So proud of the work we do bringing authors into schools.
