changing the world one book at a time. 

The Well Read Child Book Fair was founded by self-published children's book author, Toni R. Settles who wanted to give self-published authors an opportunity to showcase their books in schools.

​

Born from the idea that children need to be able to see themselves in the books they read; the Well Read Child started out as a book fair. It has since grown into a mission to close the literacy gap. 

​

Children from diverse backgrounds are now a majority of all public school students and will soon be a majority of all children in America. Studies have found that children thrive and reach academic success when culturally supported. 

​

 Well Read Child book fair is the solution and is developing a plan to support achievement for all students.
