What happens when children are given the space to tell their own stories? This.
I Got a Story to Tell is a one-of-a-kind anthology featuring nine young authors who did exactly that. Through adventure, humor, mystery, and heart, these students brought their imaginations to life and created something real, something lasting, and something entirely their own.
Born out of the LitKids Create Books By Me workshop, this collection is the result of young writers being guided, encouraged, and taken seriously as creators. Each story is a window into how a child sees the world - unfiltered, bold, and full of possibility.
This is more than a book. It is proof that authorship has no age limit. It is a celebration of what becomes possible when children are treated as storytellers from the start - not someday, but right now.
For young readers, these are stories written by kids just like them. For parents and educators, this is a reminder of what children are capable of when creativity is treated as something worth investing in.
I Got a Story to Tell, Volume 1 is just the beginning.
