As we all know, the proverbial dark side of media is that no news is good news. People crave news that shocks, appauls, and debates. Back in college, I learned the hierachry of a news lineup, and at the very end of a broadcast you will be “treated” to a light story intended as a diversion from all of the ugly news of the world.
I’m not here trying to re-route the news format, but I do believe we are deserving of some refreshing articles here and there. Upon navigating the internet for articles on kids communities, I stumbled upon The First Book Blog. This is a blog that helps children coming from low-income families discover ways to start reading. It’s true that literacy is often taken for granted, and it’s uber-important to recognize that there are kids out there that need your help with reading.
