MKE4Kids and Barbershop Books Collaboration
Barbershop Books is a national organization that expands reading opportunities for historically excluded populations through child-centered, culturally relevant, and community-based programming and content. Low reading achievement will produce a population who are ill-prepared to compete in the workforce of tomorrow.
Mighty Small Moments happen anywhere.
We’re encouraging families to create #mightysmallmoments. Please visit one of our partner locations:
P’s Classic Kutz - 5194 N Teutonia, Milwaukee, WI 53209.
Kingdom of Hair - 1000 W North Ave, Milwaukee, WI 53205.
During your visit, families and children will have the opportunity to explore kid-sized bookshelves and a curated set of fun books to read.
A message from Barbershop Books’ founder
Barbershop Books Founder, Alvin Irby, invites community members in Milwaukee to recommend barbershops to host child-friendly reading spaces.
