Behind the Book inspires young people to cultivate their vast potential through literacy programs centered on diverse books and authors.
As a result of our programs, young people experience an increase in confidence, learn social-emotional skills, and experience a greater intrinsic motivation to read and write, setting them up for a future of success and lifelong learning.
Our Signature Program
Located in classrooms and libraries our programs feature a series of workshops including in person author visits, art workshops, reading and writing workshops, special speakers and field trips. Many students leave our program published authors in our professionally designed student books.
