Grab your favorite books and curl up in a comfy chair, because this Thurs., Apr. 23 is World Book Day. American Girl wants to help you celebrate. Author Valerie Tripp will host the first virtual read along of Kit: Read All About It Chapter 1.
In developing the Kit series, Tripp was so inspired by her mother’s story (who was exactly the same age as Kit in 1932 and impacted by the Depression) that she helps Kit learn to find hope in spite of struggles. As the most prolific American Girl author, with more than 70 American Girl titles to her name, Tripp is now translating her stories to digital to bring girls and families together at home.
Join Tripp on Apr. 23 at 9a.m. PT / 12p.m. ET on on Facebook Premiere & IGTV. The video will also be available on American Girl.
Stay & Play with a free book download following the live event.
This is the first of many influential and celebrity readings to come from American Girl.
