Read and Rise ~ Sandra L. Pinkney

Read and Rise

Written by Sandra L. Pinkney
Foreward by Maya Angelou
Photographs by Myles C. Pinkney

Filled with beautiful photographs of children, this book is part of the Read and Rise Initiative, which helps prepare children for a lifetime of success by providing a parents guide to fostering reading skills in their kids. Through the use of their imagination and a book, these children can become anything they want to be; a pilot, doctor, chef, teacher, astronaut, firefighter, baseball player, dancer. Whether its exploring, soaring, healing, catching, “just open a book to – Read and Rise.” We read lots of books and I appreciate books that encourage reading! Read more >>
