Children’s author Lisa Caprelli and 12-year-old students Sofia Swade and Emily Isabel connected with Mountain View Elementary School students Wednesday as part of Caprelli’s Reading Across America tour.
Caprelli is the author of the Children’s Unicorn Book Series, Unicorn Jazz, which celebrates diversity, belonging and believing in others.
Swade and Isabel are young actresses who’ve been taking part in efforts to encourage reading and literacy.
Here’s more from the girls’ publicists:
“They are part of the Unicorn Jazz kid’s club, a musically-inspired brand dedicated to creating and sharing happiness for kids through stories and digital media. It is through this wonderful educational platform that Sofia and Emily have the opportunity to encourage boys and girls their age to dream big, dance, sing and read! Sofia and Emily even regularly donate their allowances to charity initiatives to get more books in the hands of students and pediatric patients at local children’s hospitals!”
