BookBreak’s Buy One Give One Program allows us to give a high-poverty school free access to our virtual author talk program. We bring monthly bestselling virtual author talks to our network of schools each month via live stream, including Q&A from students. The events are geared toward specific grade cohorts from K-12, and are accompanied by lesson plans and activities that integrate into the curriculum. Each grade level has the opportunity to hear from an age-appropriate author at least once per month. Recordings of the talks are also available for future use.
Our vision is to make hearing from inspiring authors a regular part of the student experience and dramatically expand access to these programs. BookBreak is committed to supporting reading and literacy for all students K-12.
