Children's Author Lisa Caprelli encourages literacy!

Life since the pandemic changed for many students, teachers, and parents. Many amazing kids with all kinds of talents were able to connect with us to bring education and entertainment with our show THE THING I DO!

The silver lining has been to create a way for kids – like the ones you see on this page – to share and inspire other kids to keep doing what they love.
