Kids play with rhyme, imagery, and read-aloud performance through short poems and tall tales. We keep the mood playful, celebrating weird word choices over perfect grammar. Everyone reads a piece aloud to the group by the end of class.

This has become the highlight of his week, no contest. He came home with a first real bound book of original writing and he wouldn't stop talking about it. We recommend it to every parent we know.
Zoe has been counting down to Monday every single week. She came home with a first real bound book of original writing and she wouldn't stop talking about it.
We've been coming since we moved to the Valley and the difference in confidence is obvious. She came home with a first real bound book of original writing and she wouldn't stop talking about it.
Honestly didn't expect this much enthusiasm from her. She came home with a whole short story worth real pride and she wouldn't stop talking about it. Parking on Ventura Blvd gets tight after 3pm but there's a lot behind the building.
We tried two other places in the Valley before this one and nothing compares. She came home with a first real bound book of original writing and she wouldn't stop talking about it. Parking on Ventura Blvd gets tight after 3pm but there's a lot behind the building. Already signed up for the next session.
We like it overall, with some room to grow. The schedule has changed on us twice this term with pretty short notice. She did come home with a first real chapter book finished cover to cover, so it's not all bad.
I was nervous he would lose interest but it's been the opposite. He came home with a genuine love of reading that wasn't there before and he wouldn't stop talking about it. Mrs. Keiko is wonderful with his whole group. Worth every credit.
