August, already?

Hello young authors!  If you're in the south, this is the month that leads up to some very important first days...of school that is!  Our next session is just around the corner, and we'll be wrapping up our fictional chapter books.  Let me tell ya, they are really good!  Please tell your parents to make note of our new YAP location/time listed below.  Check back soon for some exciting YAP news coming in the next few weeks!

Until next time, keep reading and/or writing, writing, writing away!  Oh yeah, don't forget the YAP motto..."Anything is possible, as long as you believe!"

***ATTENTION AFTER SCHOOL PROGRAMS AND SUMMER CAMPS***

If you are in need of fun, educational, interactive literacy materials, the YAP is now offering Your Story.  It's a creative writing kit for youth in grades K-12.  Individual worksheets are available for $6.25, or in sets of 4, 8, and 12.  Email us for Your Story creative writing samples and/or a detailed list of measurable outcomes.  With the YAP, reading and writing CAN be fun!

If you would like the YAP to visit your youth organization (grades K-12), call or email us for rates and availability at (704) 464-8559 or dorothyhp@gmail.com.
