Hi there, R E A C H families! Let's look back on what we did this month in REACH. With Storm Trucks as our guide, we explored...

Inspired by Storm Trucks by Charlotte Glaze, we’ll turn stormy skies into imaginative play with a flashlight, a few simple craft supplies, and a lot of storytelling power.

Donna Boock is offering free Zoom read-alouds to classrooms and homeschool groups. As always, I’m also available for in-person school visits and I try to work with every budget. I can get mighty creative to try to make it work! I’m happy to work with PTAs and schools to make the book accessible through fundraisers, discounted bundles, or even a copy for every student when possible.

Get ready to shake, tap, rumble, and sing—this week is all about sound! In Week 3 of our Storm Trucks REACH guide, we’re tuning in to the rhythms of a storm and turning noisy weather into a musical adventure your child will love.

We made it through the stormy start—now it’s time to slow things down, look up, and get a little curious. Welcome to Week 2 of R E A C H...

If you’ve got a little one who loves big machines, has big feelings, or just needs a brave story for a blustery, boomtastic day, Storm Trucks is the perfect read.
