My son (7) derisively asked why the first issue had no activity pages, and said it would be a lot better if it did 😆

So, activity pages are coming!
Did you know?!? On top of awesome fiction and poetry, our second issue is going to include an interview with an author and activity pages that relate to our theme and the included pieces?

We cannot wait to share! #Trustworthy

This would pair REALLY WELL with our first issue, TAKING A STAND (free on our site and as printable PDF, for purchase in hard copy on Amazon).

Maybe get one of each and gift them to a kid in your life!

An inspiring issue of #kidlit poetry, stories & art celebrating community, collective action & the many ways we work together to make the world a better place.
