Next Episode: Inspiring Kids to Identify as Readers
Three simple words can have a profound effect on a child's life— "I’m a reader.”
Unfortunately for too many children in the US, numerous challenges and barriers have made these words infrequent.
In the latest episode of the Big & Little Podcast, former kindergarten teacher, founder of Barbershop Books, comedian, and expert in early literacy Alvin Irby speaks about empowering kids, especially young Black boys and other vulnerable children, to identify as readers and grow to enjoy learning.
