Kidspace Literary Series
 Literacy among children and adults is a critical issue in the United States. That's why Kidspace actively encourages a love and appreciation of reading through literature programs and events at the early stages of development and beyond. The Kidspace Literary Series brings renowned children's authors and illustrators who will read to, interact with, and inspire young guests.
We are proud to partner with The Wonder of Reading and their 3R program ("Renovate, Restock and Read").
