How cute are these little libraries? 🍄🐮
We are so excited for this Little Free Library, painted by University of Detroit Mercy Honors student @maryamqoda , to find a home soon with one of our community partners! 🏠 Like all of our libraries, kids and families will be invited to choose books to take home, read, and keep.📚
Today is International Literacy Day! Rx for Reading recognizes the opportunity gap that children in Detroit and across the globe have to literacy resources, and we have made it our mission to expand the access to these resources!📚

The Downriver Foster Closet held a “Back to School Book Bag Drive” to supply Foster, Kinship, and Adoptive families with all the supplies they will need for back to school! Rx for Reading attended and was able to distribute over 300 books, to preschoolers all the way to high schoolers!
Rx for Reading participated in a “Talk Read Sing” literacy event with @greatstartcollabwayne on Wednesday August 18th. They promoted reading in both children and parents through numerous vendors and small performances that encouraged the conversation about literacy!
