An award-winning, nonprofit organization that celebrates the powerful impact books have on young people
Students at Bethlehem Elementary School in Connecticut have adopted National Ambassador for Young People’s Literature Gene Luen Yang’s Reading Without Walls Challenge — encouraging readers of all ages to pick up a book that is unlike their usual reading.
Bethlehem students have made a pledge “to remove the walls that prevent you from becoming a well-read person,” sharing photos and testimonies about their experience.
