Many urban children do not have a personal library, nor do they visit the library with a family member. As a result, they are deprived of the joy and privileges that come with reading. Our goal is to promote the love of reading while "Passing On" the rich culture and history absent in many classrooms. Using Literacy Circles as a multi-dimensional learning experience to encourage and motivate children of all backgrounds to love reading is how we "pass it on"!   The Founder, Beverly Lloyd, served as English Language Arts Chairperson, Master Teacher, Advance Placement Teacher and Multicultural Resource Teacher for the Cleveland Municipal School District for 38 years. As a veteran member of the Cleveland Association of Black Storytellers, she believes that "Readers Become Leaders"! We hope you'll donate and/or volunteer to help keep our program going.
