Kids Read believes:

• Each child is a unique learner with his or her own strengths, abilities and outlook.
  
  
• Sharing the joy and instilling the love of reading is key to help children move from learning to read to reading to learn.
  
  
• Children learn best in a positive and socially engaging context.
  
  
• The focus should be on teaching kids to read rather than teaching reading to kids.
  
  
• Families, educators, libraries and and community members all want to see children become literate and successful.
