A Special Day of Stories with Valerie Bolling

Children’s author Valerie Bolling visited Council Rock Primary School on Nov. 6. Preparing students for the visit was a team effort, with teachers reading her books in a variety of settings, including library, Extended Studies, music, and physical education.

Bolling is the author of several books, including “Let’s Dance,” “Together We Swim,” “I See Color,” “A Flea for Justice: Marian Wright Edelman Stands Up for Change,” and “Rainbow Days.”

Valerie read one of her books at each grade-level assembly and made sure we had lots of student participation, as well as time for questions! Each student received a keepsake bookmark with details about the visit, pictures of the author now and as a young girl, and a printed signature on the back.

Thank you to the Brighton PTSA for funding this visit!
